Description:
The IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2023-2, which had a substantial impact on estate planning, particularly where an irrevocable trust is involved. In the last decade or so, more families have begun utilizing irrevocable trusts to protect their assets from spend-down in order to qualify for government benefits, such as Medicaid and VA Aid and Attendance.<br/><br/>Prior to the issuance of this ruling, it was unclear whether assets passing to beneficiaries through an irrevocable trust would receive a step-up in basis, thereby eliminating any capital gains taxes that would otherwise be owed. Historically, assets that are disposed of during an individual’s lifetime are subject to capital gains taxes on the increase in value of that asset over time. The amount of capital gains owed is determined largely by the difference between the value at the time of purchase and the value at the time of transfer.

_controversial-political-reforms-divide-taiwan-legislature-and-society.webp "Lawmakers from the opposition Kuomintang and Taiwan People's Party are facing off once again with the ruling Democratic Progressive Party in a bid to pass controversial reforms that would grant the legislature greater oversight over the government. The DPP says the changes have not been properly reviewed and is calling for the bills to be sent back to committee for further discussion.")
_legislative-showdown-in-taiwan-heres-what-happened.webp "In case you missed it, here’s what happened in Taiwan on Saturday when Parliamentarians descended into chaos over a series of reform bills. Among the points of contention were: <br/><br/> 1. The president must give a speech in parliament every year and answer questions right away: Currently, the president gives a speech but doesn't have to answer questions until later. The new law would change this.<br/>2. Allowing parliament to investigate anyone, even private citizens: The proposed law would let parliament set up special committees to investigate any person or organisation, even those not in the government. It would also punish people who refuse to cooperate or lie during these investigations.<br/>3. Criminalisation of false statements in parliament: Another part of the law would make it a crime for government officials to lie or provide false information during parliamentary sessions. They could face penalties if found guilty.<br/><br/>These suggested changes sparked a heated debate between the ruling party (Democratic Progressive Party) and the opposition parties (Kuomintang and Taiwan’s People’s Party). They fought over who should have more control - the president and the government, or the parliament. <br/><br/>")
