A marital disclaimer trust has provisions (usually contained in a will) that allow a surviving spouse to leave assets in a trust for the benefit of their spouse by disclaiming ownership of a portion of the estate that the survivor would have inherited after the death of the first spouse.
The grantor can opt to have the beneficiaries receive trust property directly without any restrictions. The trustee can write the beneficiary a check, give them cash, and transfer real estate by drawing up a new deed or selling the house and giving them the proceeds.
A beneficiary may also choose to disclaim only a percentage of the inherited assets. This is acceptable if the disclaimer meets certain requirements, in which case the asset will be treated as though it never were the property of the original beneficiary.
The disclaiming agreement should be signed by the beneficiary, and witnessed. It is also important to ensure that the beneficiary waiving their right to inheritance was not improperly or unduly influenced to do. The disclaimer, once signed, does not need to be filed with the court.
Most assets can be distributed by preparing a new deed, changing the account title, or by giving the person a deed of distribution. For example: To transfer a bank account to a beneficiary, you will need to provide the bank with a death certificate and letters of administration.
