I inherited an IRA from my mother who passed away last year. Do I have to pay taxes on the IRA Does it go directly on my Income Thanks.?

Yes, you will have to pay taxes. You can take the money lump sum and pay the taxes this year, or you can roll it over into an inherited IRA and pay the taxes as the money is distributed. You will be taxed at your normal marginal tax rate.


Do you have to claim money on your tax return that you inherited?

If you just inherited a bag full of money, no. If you inherited a tax deferred account like an IRA, 401k, or pension, you may have to pay tax when you take the money out. If you inherited property such as a house or stocks, you may have to pay taxes on the growth in value between the date of death and the date you sold the property. If you inherit US Savings Bonds, you may have to pay tax on the interest when you cash them in, including interest earned during the life of the deceased if the deceased was not declaring the interest annually on his or her taxes.

What effect does the life insurance check have on Walter in A Raisin in the Sun?

The inheritance check provides hope for the family. Walter wants the check to open a liquor store, so he can secure his family's financial future. The conflict arises because his mother, who actually inherited the money, does not want the money to be used in this manner. After Mama gives Walter a share of the inheritance, Walter makes an ignorant financial move when he entrusts it to his friend Will Harris. Walter loses both his and his sister's shares of the money. Walter almost stoops so low as to grovel at the feet of a white man, who will pay the family to not move to Clybourne Park, in order to replace the money.

Do you have to pay income on money you inherited from your great aunt?

You don't have to pay income tax on money. You may have to pay income tax if you receive property that has increased in value since your aunt died. You would pay tax on the profit when you sell it. You may have to pay income tax when you take withdrawals from a tax-deferred account you inherited from your aunt (such as a traditional IRA or 401k). You may have to pay income tax on the interest from US Savings Bonds you inherited. Some states impose an inheritance tax (which is different from an income tax). You may have to pay an inheritance tax. If the estate failed to pay any tax that might be due before distributing property to you, the IRS may come looking to you to recover some of the property.


If inherited money has gone through probate hasn't it already been taxed?

Not necessarily Inherited money is not taxable, so the issue is not that it has already been taxed. The IRS does not consider it taxable income. On the other hand, any interest earned on the inherited money during administration IS taxable. That money is considered income and the estate must pay the income tax on it or the estate distributes that interest to the beneficiaries prior to the close of the estate and the beneficiaries have to declare that as income.
