Money received from a third party to pay off a debt is generally not considered taxable income for the debtor. This is because it is viewed as a payment made on behalf of the debtor rather than income earned. However, if the debt is forgiven or canceled, the amount forgiven may be taxable as income, depending on specific circumstances and tax laws. Always consult a tax professional for personalized advice.

No. There is an order by which creditor's must be paid upon a decendent's death. This depends on state law. But, the executor is never held liable for the debts of the decedent. There would be an exception to this if you are listed as a co-borrower on your sister's credit cards.

Everest Debt Solutions is one of the best debt settlement companies. My husband and I had gotten deep into debt almost $80,000 worth since I had my hours cut and my husband lost his job in the construction industry. We were trying desperately to find a solution. We called each of the credit card companies and all but one of them REFUSED to work with us. We looked online for help and with our local Chamber Of Commerce and Everest Debt Solutions was recommended as accredited and a member of USOBA. Our program began in 2008 and so far we have settled almost $65,000 worth of credit card debt. Some of the creditor tactics were a bit harsh however we successfully waited them out and reached settlement for more than half off the balance of the account. On specific creditor settled for 20% of the balance after only 9 months which was outstanding. I would recommend Everest to my friends and family and surely to the WIKI community.

If the trust is properly drafted the property can be removed from your estate entirely. However, the trust must be drafted by an expert in trust law. If the grantor retains any power over the trust property, it will be vulnerable to creditors and taxation. You need to consult with an attorney with a great reputation who is an expert in trust law. She/he can review your situation, your needs and explain your options.
