Course Description

In this course from Claudia Hill, she will take you through a frequently used estate planning tool, Grantor Trusts. This course will especially focus on the use of GRAT’s (Grantor Retained Annuity Trusts), IDGTs (Intentionally Defector Grantor Trust), and QPRT (Qualified Personal Residence Trusts). We will talk about how these are used, the benefits of using them, and cover specific filing requirements- how they get reported, how they get integrated into the grantor’s personal return, or whether a 1041 needs to be done.

Learning Objectives

Upon completing this course, participants will be able to understand:

  • Grantor Type Trusts
  • Most Common Uses of Grantor Trusts
  • Special Reporting Instructions
  • Advantage and Disadvantages of creating an IDGT
  • GRIT’s, GRAT’s, and GRUT’s
  • Transferring a Personal Residence to a Trust
  • QPRT with Grantor Retained Interest Provision
  • When the Terms of PRT or QPRT Expire?
  • Is It Possible to Void or Terminate the QPRT if it is no Longer Needed?
  • Intentionally Defective Grantor Trust (IDGT)
