Spinoff to Camacho's gifting post

I'm posting this as an FYI...the annual gift tax exclusion is $12,000 not $11,000 as a lot of you are posting. It has been indexed so it was raised in 2006. Also, the IRA limit will be raised to $5000.00 next year. I know a lot of you don't really care but for the one person that does and may have been confused. Chat Icon

Thank you!

My co-worker actually looked it up during lunch and said some websites said $11k and some said $12k. Thanks for clearing that up.

Since you seem to be so knowledgeable Chat Icon do you know what the limits are on income for IRAs? DH says that now that we are married, our combined income is going to knock us out of being able to contribute to our Roth IRAs

Phaseout for Roth IRAs is as follows:
Joint filing...$156,000-$166,000 MAGI
Filing single but married...$0-$10,000 MAGI
Single... $99,000-$114,000 MAGI


and for phaseout of deducting IRA contributions

Joint... $83,000-$103,000 AGI
*there is not income limits to making a contribution to an IRA but for the deductibility of that contribution depending on other factors as well.
