FAQ

The main downside to an irrevocable trust is simple: It's not revocable or changeable. You no longer own the assets you've placed into the trust. In other words, if you place a million dollars in an irrevocable trust for your child and want to change your mind a few years later, you're out of luck.

What assets can I transfer to an irrevocable trust? Frankly, just about any asset can be transferred to an irrevocable trust, assuming the grantor is willing to give it away. This includes cash, stock portfolios, real estate, life insurance policies, and business interests.

The step-up in basis is equal to the fair market value of the property on the date of death. In our example, if the parents had put their home in this irrevocable income only trust, and the fair market value upon their demise was $300,000, the children would receive the home with a basis equal to this $300,000 value.

Definition and Examples of the Stepped-Up Basis LoopholeTax laws in the United States allow qualified stocks, real estate and other appreciable assets you leave to your heirs to have their original cost basis adjusted. This adjustment lowers capital gains taxes if the asset is sold after it is passed on.

Appreciated property held in an irrevocable (non-grantor) trust does not generally benefit from a step-up in cost basis at the death of the grantor.

The irrevocable trust must receive a tax identification number and needs to file its own tax returns. Unlike a revocable trust, an irrevocable trust is treated as an entity that is legally independent of its grantor for tax purposes.Irrevocable trusts are taxed on income in much the same way as individuals.

Assets that have been conveyed into a revocable living trust do get a step-up in basis when they are distributed to the beneficiaries after the passing of the grantor. We should point out the fact that the beneficiaries would be responsible for any future appreciation from a capital gains perspective.

Irrevocable trusts require a legally enforceable trust agreement.Once the trust agreement is ready for signature, the parties must sign in the presence of witnesses and the document should be notarized.

4. The Trust creator may still be considered the owner of the assets in the Irrevocable Trust. When you transfer assets to an Irrevocable Trust, you may or may not still be the owner of the assets in the trust for tax purposes. Sometimes it is advantageous to be deemed to be the owner and sometimes it is not.
