Estate Planning and Providing for Taxes


By Ken Donaldson at 2013-04-26 01:17:22

Those with large estates usually needs to consider estate planning. If you are wondering what such planning usually involves, it usually makes plans as to whom to transfer the estate after one dies. The estate is defined as all the property that one owns. That can include property as well as clothes, cars, houses, land, retirement fund, investments, saving accounts, cash, jewelry and others. There has to be defined goals and objectives for estate planning.

Objectives of Tax Planning

The objectives of estate planning are usually several:

• One needs to ensure that the estate is transferred to the beneficiaries

• Assigning guardians to look after the interests of minor children

• Paying the least amount of taxes for one’s estate

• Tax planning including nonresident taxes and other taxations as may apply

When it comes to estate planning there are certain terms that one needs to consider. The first factor is a well. It is a legal document that needs to lay down the fate of your property and assets after your death. The will has to define who will receive the property and in what proportions. A trust on the other hand is an arrangement that defines where one can entrust their property. Whether one can entrust their property to a person or an organization. A trustee is a person who is entrusted with the task of managing a property on behalf of a beneficiary or many beneficiaries. The other term is power of attorney. That is a legal power given to a person who can then handle one’s affairs in case one is not in a state to handle their own affairs anymore.

Who Should Do It?

It is said that estate planning should be done by a person who can be defined as legally competent. They need to be of sound mind and should be at least eighteen year of age or older. The estate planning should be done by the owner of the estate when he is in good health and free from any kind of emotional stress.

When One Needs to Pay Nonresident Tax

When one stays in a place or a country of which they are not legal residents of, they might be liable to pay nonresident tax. One needs to have worked in another state and make other forms of income from other states when you are required to file in a nonresident tax return. If you are wondering how to get started with your nonresident tax return one needs to figure out the income that he or she makes in the non resident state as compared to the income made in the home state. Nonresident tax returns are usually compiled from federal returns and one needs to ensure that they complete the federal returns at first. In most cases one needs to make the calculations by listing out the total income from federal return in one column and the income as a nonresident in another column. The nonresident tax is calculated as a percentage of the federal tax returns.
