Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Since your Aunt was a resident of Nebraska, the money you inherited may be subject to Nebraska Inheritance Tax, but it is not subject to Pennsylvania Inheritance Tax. 

 

In Nebraska, it is the responsibility of the executor of the estate (or if there is no will, the administrator named by the court), to file a Nebraska inheritance tax return if one is required. The executor generally collects the tax from the inheritors who owe it. Even if several inheritors owe tax, only one return is filed.  Since you inherited the CD from your Aunt, there is a $15,000 exemption.  For amounts above that, the tax rate is 13%.  If you inherited less than $15,000, there is no tax.  If you inherited  more than $15,000, you should contact the executor of the estate.
