Course Overview

The potential repeal of the Estate Tax in 2025 could bring major shifts in wealth transfer planning. With several bills in Congress proposing estate tax elimination, financial professionals must consider critical implications. 

This CE nano-learning course by Robert Keebler explores key legislative proposals and their far-reaching effects on estate, gift, and GSTT planning. We’ll discuss the risks of repeal, including challenges with funding clauses, portability concerns, and how trusts may be impacted if the tax is later reinstated. Attendees will gain actionable insights to proactively structure estate plans, secure tax exemptions, and navigate potential legal uncertainties.

Major Topics: 

  • Estate Tax Repeal Risks
  • Portability Rule Elimination
  • GSTT Planning Challenges

Join us and understand the complexities of estate tax repeal and its possible return to prepare your clients for what's ahead. Stay ahead of legislative changes and equip yourself with strategies to minimize risk and preserve wealth.
