Consider a SLAT to save your $23.4 million estate tax exemption

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 created a window of estate tax exemption originally expiring on January 1, 2026.  For now, a married couple can transfer $23.4 million without having to pay gift or estate tax. 

Compromise legislation in the Build Back Better Act may move the sunset of this window up to January 1, 2022.

Whether it happens at the beginning of 2022 or 2026, this window will shrink from $23.4 million back to $11.7 million.
