Hello, If an estate is left to one person can they opt to deflect some of the funds to another w/o it becoming a "Gift"? My mother is the executrix and sole beneficiary of my uncle's estate and she wants to have the funds go to my sister and I instead of herself. Would we have to pay a gift tax on the funds or is there a way that we can receive the funds from the estate as an inheritance instead?
Thanks for any info! SCD
