Form 709

1 reply

TurboTax Deluxe 2024 did not include Form 709 (when I searched forms).

I need to use Form 709 in 2025. Will TurboTax Deluxe 2025 include Form 709?

No. Form 709 is not part of any sort of income tax return. The form is not provided nor supported by TurboTax.

Gifts given to family members, friends or other individuals are not deductible. Gifts received are not taxable to the person who received the gift, and are not entered on a tax return.

If your gift exceeds the yearly limit ($19,000 per individual) imposed by the gift tax rules, then you will need to complete a Form 709 gift tax form and send it to the IRS, although it is very unlikely that you will owe any tax.

TurboTax does not support Form 709. It is not an income tax form and would not be included as part of an income tax return.
