Mother establishes a joint bank account for herself and Arlene, her daughter. Under the account, either may withdraw funds. Mother deposits $15,000 to the account. Is there a gift for tax purposes when the money is deposited? If not, when would there be a completed gift?
Background : When you give money or any other asset to people, it might be subject to gift tax. However most transactions are not subject to gift tax. The only purpose of establishing gift tax is to avoid prevent citizens from avoiding paying taxes.
Answer :
