Despite the Tax Court's rulings, the IRS continues to review and challenge ILIT contributions and their qualifications as annual exclusion gifts during audits. Thus, clients generally should still be advised to give actual written notice to Crummey powerholders upon each gift to a trust.
A Hanging Crummey power allows the withdrawal right to lapse only for the amount that IRC § 2514(e) protects from treatment of release, which is the gift amount less the greater of $5,000 or 5% of the value of the property out of which the withdrawal right could have been satisfied.
Crummey notices are a crucial part of the administration of a trust because they are necessary in order to classify the gift as a completed gift for tax purposes. Unless a gift is considered completed, it will not qualify for the annual gift tax exclusion.
Crummey powers give the beneficiary a limited time (often 30, 45 or 60 days) to withdraw contributions to a trust at will, converting the future interest gift to a present interest gift. This withdrawal right is generally limited to an amount equal to the current annual gift tax exclusion.
Crummey power allows a person to receive a gift that is not eligible for a gift-tax exclusion and then effectively transform the status of that gift into one that is eligible for a gift-tax exclusion. For Crummey power to work, individuals must stipulate that the gift is part of the trust when it is drafted.
