Investors & landlords

I'm fine hope you are too.

the amount of a gift is not limited by law if you were as rich as Mr Musk you could give a person a billion $. 

for gifts of present interest, that are not  a transfer of property by gift to a beneficiary who is at least 37½ years younger than the donor, a gift tax return is required if the gift or gifts to any one person in one calendar year is over the annual exclusion  - $16,000 for 2022

 

 

 

the annual exclusion applies before eating into the lifetime exclusion

 a split-gift preserves more of the lifetime exclusion for her and her husband - assuming he consents

read page 6 for split gifts.  i really can't provide more info about split gifts than what is in the instructions.
