How can estate planning strategies minimize tax implications on my estate?
Estate planning strategies, such as setting up trusts, can help in minimizing tax implications by potentially reducing estate tax liabilities. For instance, specific types of trusts, like irrevocable life insurance trusts, can remove life insurance proceeds from the taxable estate. Additionally, gifting strategies during a person’s lifetime can make use of annual gift tax exclusions, effectively reducing the estate's size and its future tax burden.
