Each individual is responsible to file a Form 709. You must file a gift tax return to split gifts with your spouse (regardless of their amount) as described in Part III Spouse's Consent on Gifts to Third Parties, later. If a gift is of community property, it is considered made one-half by each spouse.
Use Form 709 to report: Transfers subject to the federal gift and certain generation-skipping transfer (GST) taxes.
If you are wondering what the cap is for the Illinois gift tax, you may be surprised to know there is no gift tax in the state. Federally, in 2021, the lifetime exclusion is $11.7 million. So, through the course of a person's life, they will be able to avoid gifts valued up to $11.7 million.
