It isn't an inheritance. It is a payment for services rendered. Just like anyone else getting paid for work. (If she actually is a lawyer or accountant, or as administor she hired one, would you have any question if those payments were income to the recepient?) Taxable. I believe the estate she was managing needs to provide a 1099 too.
Generally the taxes are paid by the estate.
The executor of an estate uses the assets of the estate to pay any taxes or other debts owed by that estate. If it should turn out that the taxes owed exceed the value of the estate, then the executor pays as much as the estate consists of, after which there is no longer an estate.
Yes, you will have to pay estate taxes on inherited property. In the United States an estate taxes is always imposed on the transfer of the "taxable estate" of a deceased person. Have already paid state taxes for CA. in FEB. Are there going to be more? I've paid taxes, is there aditional taxes included.
Yes, you will have to pay taxes on any estate money received.
Estates pay taxes on income and may have to pay inheritance taxes.
The amount of taxable inheritance depends on the entire estate. If the amount of the estate that the 60,000 was inherited from is over 2 million dollars then the income is taxable. If the estate was worth less then that then there are no taxes on the estate.
Taxable gross income includes professional fees paid to you.
Zero. Estate taxes start at $3.5 million dollars value, so .5 isn't going to be taxed.
Generally the taxes are paid by the estate.
No, they did not. They were exempted from paying taxes. Only the 3rd estate (the bourgeoisie) had to pay taxes.
Estate taxes are levied on the entire estate of a person.
Yes, you can claim real estate taxes on your taxes as a deduction if you itemize your deductions on your tax return.
Special taxes can indeed be placed on an estate, typically in the form of estate taxes or inheritance taxes, depending on the jurisdiction. These taxes are assessed on the value of the estate after the owner's death and are intended to generate revenue for the government. Additionally, some regions may impose specific taxes on certain assets or transfers within an estate. Therefore, it is not accurate to say that special taxes are never placed on an estate.

Insurance benefits are considered part of the decedent's estate. There are (theoretically) estate taxes due on them, but unless your son had a lot of other assets or an unusually large policy it's unlikely that there will be any estate tax due; the first five million dollars of the estate's assets (roughly) are exempt from federal estate taxes (it may not be exempt from state taxes, though; check with a tax professional if you're not sure). Benefits received from someone's estate are not subject to income tax.
If there is an estate, there are tax forms to be submitted. They may not result in any estate taxes, but they have to be filled out and sent in. That is one of the responsibilities of the executor.
