How much are the taxes on a 45000 gift?
In the United States, gifts are subject to the annual gift tax exclusion, which was $15,000 per recipient for 2021 and 2022. This means that if you give a gift of $45,000 to one person, you would need to report the amount over the exclusion limit, which is $30,000 in this case. However, you wouldn't owe taxes until your total gifts exceed the lifetime exclusion limit, which is over $12 million as of 2023. Always consult a tax professional for specific advice tailored to your situation.
Under which circumstances must you pay a gift tax?
Generally, you pay gift tax when your gift exceeds the annual exclusion for the person to whom you are giving it, which is $15,000 in 2012. However, there are other exceptions, and a lifetime exclusion of $5,000,000 that might be useful.
How much money can you gift tax-free to your son or daughter each year?
You can give $13,000 in 2009 (the number changes most years) without having to report it or file a gift tax return. If you give more than that, you have to file a gift tax return. The excess over $13,000 is subtracted from both your lifetime gift tax allowance and from your estate tax allowance. Once your $1 million lifetime gift tax allowance is used up, you have to start paying gift taxes. Once your estate tax allowance is used up, after your death your estate will have to pay estate taxes. Note that tuition paid directly to an educational institution or medical bills paid directly to a medical services provider on behalf of your child (or anyone else) do not count. You can pay as much of either of those as you want and it will not count against your annual or lifetime limits.
If you are given money from your Mom as a gift is there a form to fill out to avoid paying taxes on it to the Federal government?
Filling out a form will not prevent you from paying taxes. The US has a gift tax that is paid by the giver. However, there is also a gift tax annual exclusion and a gift tax lifetime exemption. In 2009, the gift annual tax exclusion is $13,000. If the total gift for 2008 exceeds that amount, your mom will need to file IRS form 709 to report the gift. Even if the gift was over $13,000, this does not mean that she will have to pay a tax. Everyone has a $1 million lifetime gift tax exemption. So once the $13,000 exclusion is exceeded, the giver starts eating into the million dollar exemption, which also reduces the amount that can be passes estate tax free at death. No gift tax is paid until the million dollar lifetime exclusion is used up. If the gift is something other then cash, but you estimate that you that the value was less then $13,000, you may still want to file form 709 because filing the form starts a statute of limitations for which the IRS can contest the value of the gift. For example, if your mom gives you a gift you reasonable believe is a piece of art worth $10,000 (and may have appraisal done) but it turns out the value is $100,000 at the time of the gift, unless you filed form 709, the IRS can at any time attack the value of the gift. If form 709 is filed, the IRS may only attach the value until the statute of limitations expires. Of course, talk to your tax advisor regarding your personal circumstances.

What is the difference between the lifetime gift tax exemption and the annual exclusion when it comes to gifting assets?
The lifetime gift tax exemption is the total amount of gifts an individual can give over their lifetime without having to pay gift tax. The annual exclusion is the amount of money or assets that can be gifted to an individual each year without triggering gift tax. The main difference is that the lifetime exemption applies to the total amount of gifts given over a person's lifetime, while the annual exclusion is a yearly limit on the amount that can be gifted tax-free to each individual.

If your mom transfurs her 80000 over in account for you and your husband will that mess us up on taxeswill there be taxes to pay on that account?
yes, all banks report any large transaction to the IRS, this will appear as money earned on your yearly income. No. Your mother would be making a taxable gift to each of you and your husband. She should file a gift tax return showing the gift. A portion of it would qualify as annual exclusion gifts. That portion that did not qualify as annual exclusion gifts would reduce the amount of her lifetime exemption from gift taxes.

What financial repercussions could a person have if he buys another family member a home and puts it in their name?
Just for starters, the recipient would have to look carefully to see who is paying the tax on the purchase, as well as the property taxes for the house after purchase. First, it depends on who "their name" is. If the house is in the name of the gift recipient, the giver has made a gift of the value of the house to the recipient. In the US, you are allowed to give $13,000 annually to a single individual ($26,000 to a couple) with out any gift tax consequences. If the giver gives over of that amount, the giver eats into the $1million that they can give over their lifetime. Once the giver has used up their million dollar exemption, the giver, not the recipient, will have to pay gift taxes. By using part of the $1million gift tax exclusion you also reduce the amount that you can pass estate tax free at your death. the estate tax exclusion for 2009 is $3.5 million. Example, you give a $200,000 house to your brother. The first $13,000 is the annual exclusion. The next $187,000 eats into the lifetime $1 million gifting limit. Assuming the giver has not made any large gifts to anyone else, no tax is due and the give may give an additional $813,000 during their lifetime without paying gift tax. If the giver makes no additional large gifts and if they died in 2009, the giver may pass $3.313 million at death without estate taxes. If the giver retains the house in her or her own name, and lets the family member live there, the gift tax law still applies, but it is the value of the rental that is considered the gift. If the rental value plus any other gifts to that recipient does not exceed $13,000 per year, the giver would not eat into their million dollar lifetime exclusion.
What is the lifetime applicable exclusion amount for gifts and how does it impact gift-giving strategies?
The lifetime applicable exclusion amount for gifts is the total value of gifts that can be given without incurring gift tax. In 2021, this amount is 11.7 million per individual. This impacts gift-giving strategies because individuals can use this exclusion to transfer assets to others without being taxed, allowing for strategic planning to minimize tax liabilities.
