Download or read book Section 2036 Hurdle Raised for Family Limited Partnerships written by Reed W. Easton and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Family Limited Partnerships ("FLPs") and Limited Liability Companies ("LLCs") are commonly used in estate planning to transfer real estate, marketable securities or other assets to family members with valuation discounting used in determining the gift or estate tax consequences. Parents retain control over their assets under the terms of the FLP or LLC agreement while reducing the potential estate tax applicable thereto through the use of valuation discounts attributable to the FLP or LLC interests. Recently, the IRS has been aggressively using Section 2036 in estate tax cases to attack the FLP and LLC strategy for valuation adjustment. A new decision overshadows all the former decisions in its expansive interpretation of Section 2036 (a) (2). This article will look at that decision Estate of A. Strangi TC Memo 2003-145 (May 20, 2003) (i.e. "Strangi II") and identify possible practitioner responses. These possible responses will address current estate planning as well as what the practitioner might do with existing FLPs/LLCs and in the event of a gift or estate tax return examination. Lee Iacocca has been quoted as saying - "We are continually faced by great opportunities brilliantly disguised as insoluable problems." This article is directed to identifying those available opportunities. The FLP/LLC Technique has been around for more than eight years and now the retention of control may avoid any possibility of a valuation discount. Should bad facts be allowed to make bad law? What is the effect of Strangi II on future estate planning? Those parents who already have existing FLPs/LLCs have available alternatives to choose from. What does the new Strangi II decision mean prospectively to the practitioner and his or her clients?
