My father passed away this month and I am trying to settle his estate, I have been told many different things by many different people and am not sure who is right. I am asking about WV estate tax and if the life insurance is included in the amount of the estate. My father had two life insurance policies one he had bought on his own naming me and my sister as the beneficiaries and the other he had through his work naming me and my sister as the beneficiaries. From what I could gather the state does not tax the estate if it is less than $600,000.00. Is the IRS the same way?
