Qualified terminable interest trusts (QTIP trusts) are an estate planning tool used to maximize a couple's applicable exclusion amounts while qualifying for the marital deduction. Full property interest transfers to spouses do not trigger most gift or estate taxes under the marital deduction.
A reverse QTIP trust operates the same way as a QTIP trust, with the exception being the decedent allocates his or her remaining generation-skipping transfer (GST) tax exemption to the assets funding the reverse QTIP trust.
First, complete the General Information section on part one of the form. Line 12 would also allow you to check off on whether you and your spouse made joint gifts for the tax year. If not, you may skip lines 13 through 18. Note that your spouse must also sign Form 709 in the appropriate spot if you made joint gifts.
How a QTIP Trust Works. A QTIP trust is a type of irrevocable trust. That means once you transfer assets to the trust, that transfer typically can't be reversed. This kind of trust is useful for people who are remarried and have children from a previous marriage.
