No, gifts are not taxable. However, the IRS does have some specific rules about gifts and taxes, and it's important for you to understand them. The basics are that you can give up to $15,000 worth of cash or property as a gift without filing any special tax forms (since 2018). Gifts are not taxable because it not considered income or earned income.

Generally the form of the gift is irrelevant for tax purposes; a gift of a vehicle worth $2000 is taxable to the same extent that a gift of $2000 cash would be.

When does a cash gift become income?

When it really isn't a gift. There is a myth out there that by giving a taxable payment a creative name, it can be treated as a gift. For example, if an employer gives his staff a check as a "token of his affection" for meeting their sales goals, it is still not a gift. Or if a neighbor gives you a thank-you $20 bill everytime you mow his lawn, it is still not a gift. I suppose a gift from illegal activities might be taxable. For example, if a bank robber gives a bank teller a gift for not identifying him in a line up, that might be taxable. Or an embezzler splits his loot with the people who fed him inside information, that might be taxable.
