What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia
My parents were divorced several years ago but my Mother remained as the beneficiary of my Father's life insurance policy. Now that he has passed, she would like to split the proceeds with my sister and I. Other than accepting the full benefit amount and gifting it to us annually, is there an option to divide the proceeds amongst the 3 of us at the time of payout without incurring any tax liability?
