Code of Maine Rules

Chapter 601 - ESTATE TAX
Section 125-601-05 - Gifts

Current through 2024-38, September 18, 2024

Generally, adjusted taxable gifts are added to the federal gross estate and Maine elective property in order to determine whether the estate has exceeded the Maine exclusion. The Assessor will disregard a gift and treat the decedent as the owner of the property where a gift has not been completed, incidents of ownership were retained by the decedent, or where the gift otherwise would be disregarded under the Code, federal regulations, or policy. In addition, where the decedent, within one year prior to the date of death, made taxable gifts as defined under the Code, the value of those taxable gifts when made on or after January 1, 2008, will be included in the decedent's estate in accordance with 36 M.R.S.§4062.
