The federal estate tax regime allows a surviving spouse to use the deceased spouse's unused portion of the exemption—a feature called "portability." However, Maine's estate tax does not offer portability between spouses; each spouse has a separate exemption amount of $6.41 million.

Maine Estate Tax Exemption The estate tax threshold for Maine is $6.01 million in 2022 and $6.41 million in 2023. If your estate is worth less than that, Maine won't charge estate tax on it.

If a federal Form 706 is required, then a Maine estate tax return (Form 706ME) is also required if (1) the decedent was a Maine resident at the time of death or (2) the decedent was a nonresident and owned real and/or tangible personal property located in Maine at the time of death.

As described above, the executor is required to include many documents with Form 706 and Form 706-NA. Many of those documents are provided to the executor in electronic form, who is then required to reproduce multiple copies of those forms to include with federal and state filings.

In addition, some Forms 1040, 1040-A, 1040-EZ, and 1041 cannot be e-filed if they have attached forms, schedules, or documents that IRS does not accept electronically.
