deemed transferor

Read a random definition: guaranty

A quick definition of deemed transferor:

A deemed transferor is someone who has an interest in a special kind of trust that can be taxed when they die. This person is usually the child of the person who created the trust. For example, if a grandfather sets up a trust that pays money to his son for life and then gives the rest to his grandson, the son is the deemed transferor. When the son dies, the government may take some of the money in the trust as a tax. This tax is called the generation-skipping transfer tax.

A more thorough explanation:

A deemed transferor is a person who holds an interest in a generation-skipping trust on behalf of a beneficiary. When this person dies, the generation-skipping transfer tax is imposed. This person is often a child of the settlor.

Let's say a grandfather establishes a trust with income payable for life to his son. The remainder of the trust goes to his grandson, who is also known as the skip person. When the son dies, the trust will be included in his gross estate for determining the generation-skipping transfer tax. In this example, the son is the deemed transferor.

This definition is important for understanding the tax implications of generation-skipping trusts and how they are passed down through generations.

This is obviously not true for UVA. Past years show they don't send any non A results until December
