[WSBAPT] disclaimer of interest

[Diane J. Kiepe]

Eric and Nicholas are correct and the process is, in my experience, easy.  One caveat, if the person wants to redirect because of creditor issues, that adds a layer of legal analysis.

They could execute an assignment of interest. This is not tax advice to you or anyone, but it is probably a taxable gift that needs to be reported on a 709.
Best,

Nope. Disclaimer is considered to have predeceased. RCW 11.86.041<https://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=11.86&full=true#11.86.041>.

If the beneficiary wants someone in particular to get it, they must accept the interest, and then gift it to the other person. With all the tax and other implications that involves.

Sincerely,

Eric

Hi Listmates,

Can a beneficiary who disclaims interest specify who they would like to take over their interest?

Thank you,

Harkiran
