1Trusts should be drafted by an attorney familiar with such matters in order to take into account income gift and estate tax laws (including generation skipping transfer tax) Failure to do so could result in adverse tax treatment of trust proceeds
Do you have assets that you intend on passing to your heirs because you dont need them to sustain your current standard of livingDo these excess assets include annuities certificates of deposits (CDs) municipal bonds bond portfolios IRAs or qualified plansWould you consider repositioning these excess assets so that you can potentially pass more wealth to your heirs

IRA MaximizationObjectiveTo implement a strategy with the intention of minimizing an individualrsquos tax liability for future generations while maintaining control and access to your IRA This is important because a combination of estate and income taxes could reduce these proceeds by up to 70 percent since IRArsquos receive no ldquostep up in basisrdquo upon death and the monies in the IRA are includable in your estate for the purpose of determining your heirsrsquo estate tax liability
How it works
1 IRA owner takes annual distributions and gifts a portion of the after-tax distribution to an ILIT1 The distribution from the IRA may remove that asset from the taxable estate of the owner
1a Distributions in excess of premiums may be used for living expenses reducing taxable estate to heirs
2 The trustee of the ILIT uses the annual gifts to purchase a life insurance policy on the IRA owner as the insured and naming the ILIT as owner and beneficiary Gift tax may be reduced or eliminated by using any available unified credit or annual exclusion amounts
3 At the IRA ownerrsquos death life insurance proceeds may pass income and estate tax free to the ILIT
4 ILIT beneficiaries per the trust terms receive the trust assets
5 In addition any remaining IRA balance held outside of the ILIT will pass to the heirs after any income and estate taxes have been paid Distributions from the IRA to heirs may also be subject to income tax

Estate planning strategies using life insurance
The dilemma
Many people who have been successful in saving for retirement have established a large enough nest-egg to be able to create a legacy for their children grandchildren and favorite charities leaving them to wonder how to best leverage their qualified or tax advantaged retirement plans
A common question is whether IRA owners should take larger withdrawals and pay income taxes now or whether they should take out as little as possible during their lifetime leaving a likely income tax burden for their heirs and beneficiaries
When is the best time to pay income taxes on an IRA

In times of economic uncertainty many individuals turn to life insurance to help stabilize their investment portfolios Why
The death benefi t paid to benefi ciaries is based on a combination of conservative investments and the mortality predictions derived from actuarial tables In other words the life insurance carrierrsquos ability to estimate the time of death of those who pay into a life insurance pool means the policyrsquos proceeds are largely insulated from the marketrsquos ups and downs
