You can give up to $15,000 to anyone, ever year (in 2012), without incurring any gift tax liability. Gifts to your spouse are completely tax-free.
Yes, but not in portions that exceed your annual exclusion.
Yes, if the gifts do not exceed his $15,000 annual exclusion for each recipient.
No. Grandmother may give away up to $12,000 per recipient per year without incurring gift tax (which is just estate tax in advance). The recipient is never taxed on a gift.
The exclusion for gift tax will remain at $14,000 per person for 2015 unless it is changed between now and early next year. This means that a person may give $14,000 to any other person they want to without incurring any gift taxes. If they are married their spouse can also give $14,000 to that person. If the recipient is married then the person and his spouse can also give the spouse $14,000 from each on of the gift givers. There is also a lifetime limit on gift giving without incurring gift taxes. The lifetime limit is $ 5,430,000. These limits are for individual gifts and don't have anything to do with donations to IRS Certified 501(3)(b) Non-Profit Organizations.
Under IRS Gift Tax rules The amount of money you can give to any one person without incurring a tax liability depends on your particular tax status. But for most people, the amount was $13,000 (per person) after 2009. Couples can gift double that amount from community property. (This may increase after the 2012 tax year.)The current regulations can be found at the related link below.

yes, it is best to give not only gifts but everything without any expectations.
The amount a parent can give to a child without being required to pay gift taxes is $13,000.00.
It is just fine to give money instead of a gift at a wedding in England. Some couples prefer the money to buy what they want rather than getting duplicate gifts or gifts that do not suit their lifestyle.
ya you just give it to them and ask for cash that is on the gift card
Any amount over $13,000 would be a taxable gift. It would go against the donor's lifetime exemption (actually a credit equivalent) until it equals $1 million. Then it is taxable at the uniform estate and gift rates.
