Sale of timber from inherited land

Timber is taxed at capital gains tax rates for most taxpayers, and for taxpayers in certain tax brackets, the tax rate on long-term capital gains is currently 0%.  

 

If $34,408 is your total income, including the sale of the timber, you will qualify for the 0% capital gains tax rate, at any filing status.  If you are filing a joint tax return with a spouse your total income can be as much as $78,750 and you will still pay no capital gains tax.

 

I hope this is good news for you, but if this still doesn't explain things for you or you have more questions, please let us know!
