Tax-Savvy Estate Planning Strategies

There are many different tax-savvy estate planning strategies available in Ontario, such as:
• Setting up trusts: Trusts can be used to shelter assets from taxes and to control how assets are distributed after death.
• Giving away assets before death: Gifting assets before death can reduce the size of your estate and the taxes you owe.
• Adding children as joint tenants on the property can help avoid probate fees and reduce the taxes your children owe on the property after your death.

Top Considerations to Minimize Your Potential Tax Liabilities

Deemed Disposition Tax

his is a tax that is triggered when you die on the fair market value of all of your assets, regardless of whether you have actually sold them. This can be a significant tax bill, especially if you have a large estate. There are a number of strategies that you can use to minimize your deemed disposition tax, such as gifting assets to your heirs before you die, using a spousal trust, or incorporating your business.

Probate Fees

Probate fees are the fees that are charged by the court to administer your estate. These fees can be significant, especially if you have a large estate. There are a number of ways to minimize your probate fees, such as creating a will, appointing a personal representative, and keeping your estate simple.

U.S. Estate Tax

If you are a Canadian citizen or resident who owns assets in the United States, you may be subject to U.S. estate tax. The U.S. estate tax is much higher than the Canadian estate tax, so it is important to plan for it if you are a dual citizen or resident. There are a number of strategies that you can use to minimize your U.S. estate tax, such as using a trust or gifting assets to your heirs before you die.

Charitable Giving

You can reduce your estate taxes by making charitable donations. You can either donate assets during your lifetime or leave them to charity in your will. If you donate assets during your lifetime, you will receive a tax deduction for the fair market value of the assets. If you leave assets to charity in your will, your estate will not be taxed on the value of those assets.
