We do not have inheritance tax in the United States. We do have Estate Taxes. Estate taxes should be paid by the estate and not by the one who inherited property. Depending on what year the person dies, and what the value of the estate is at the time of death determines whether or not an Estate Tax Return must be filed and if such tax is due. You need to see a tax preparer qualified in such matters to determine if this type of return is needed to be filed or not.

No, you would not have to pay any inheritance tax if it is under/or a million dollars. This varies from year to year. I think next year the amount youcan inherit is 2 million without paying an inheritance tax. 'Estatetax' is the term in the United State and itis paid by the estate, not the individual inheriting property.
