Canadian with stepped inheritance -
QUESTION: If you inheritate a large amount of money from a deceased parent, and it is given to you over the period of years and then you are given a large lump sum when you become the age of thirty, how much would a person lose in taxes? And when would you have to pay it, when you received it or the year after? Thank you for your time. ======================= david ingram replies: Canada does not have an inheritances or estate tax. Any taxes on the principal of the inheritance should have been paid with the deceased's final tax return. If the corpus or body or principal of the estate was now left in a trust to be spit out at a beneficiary's 30th birthday, the estate would pay tax on a form T3 each year unless it disbursed the earnings to the beneficiary which sounds like what happened here. The estate would issue a T3 slip to the beneficiary telling the beneficiary how much interest, dividends, and / or capital gains the beneficiary had received and the beneficiary would report interest and dividends on schedule 3 and use schedule 4 if there were capital gains. If and when the lump sum, was paid out, it is unlikely that there would be any tax at that time because it would be a tax paid amount. ------------------------------ David Ingram's US/Canada Services US / Canada / Mexico tax, Immigration and working Visa Specialists US / Canada Real Estate Specialists Home office at: 4466 Prospect Road North Vancouver, BC, CANADA, V7N 3L7 Cell (604) 657-8451 - (604) 980-0321 Fax (604) 980-0325 Calls welcomed from 10 AM to 10 PM 7 days a week (please do not fax or phone outside of those hours as this is a home office) email to taxman at centa.com <mailto:taxman at centa.com> www.centa.com <http://www.centa.com/> www.david-ingram.com <http://www.david-ingram.com/> Disclaimer: This question has been answered without detailed information or consultation and is to be regarded only as general comment.
