How much money can an individual person give anotherindicual without being required to pay gift taxes or file a gift tax return in the state of Michigan?

Answer 1

In Michigan, the federal gift tax exclusion applies, allowing an individual to give up to $17,000 per recipient in 2023 without incurring gift tax or needing to file a gift tax return. This amount is per recipient, meaning one can give to multiple individuals without exceeding the exclusion limit. Gifts exceeding this amount may require the giver to file a gift tax return, but tax liability typically only arises if the cumulative gifts exceed the lifetime exemption amount. Always consult a tax professional for personalized advice.
