You don't pay income tax on the receipt of the gift.
However, if the gift consists of property that has gone up in value, you may have a taxable capital gain when you sell or dispose of the gift.
Your brother or sister, depending on the size of the gifts he or she gives, may have to pay a gift tax, which is different than an income tax.
