Abe and Jan are well to do and are concerned that the estate tax exemption of $10,500,000 (combined) will not be sufficient to a
void estate taxes. The have 3 married children and 7 grandchildren. They would like to give about $300,000 per year to their children and grandchildren, but do not want to pay any gift tax or reduce their lifetime gift and estate tax deduction. They also do not want the young children to be in control of the money. They have heard about the Crummey powers and ask you if that would be the solution to their situation. Research the Crummey rules and recommend to Abe and Jan what to do.
