Estate Tax “Patch” Likely

The estate tax is scheduled to disappear in 2010, to be revived in 2011 at 2001 levels, which means a $1 million exemption instead of the 2009 exemption of $3.5 million, along with an increase to 55% tax from the current 45% bracket. However, recent news indicates that it is likely that Congress will extend the 2009 level through 2010, while it seeks a more permanent overhaul of the estate and gift tax code. It’s almost a given that Congress will have to re-implement the estate and gift tax for 2010, because its disappearance, even for only a year, is a huge blow to tax revenue. Hopefully, though, when it is made “permanent” (whatever that means), it will not be at the low 2001 level of $1 million.
