Not legal or tax advice. Estate and inheritance tax is determined by a court or tax authority using your actual filings. Online estimators provide an informal planning figure only. Laws and exemption amounts change every year — always confirm the current rule with the IRS, your state Department of Revenue, or a licensed estate attorney or CPA before relying on any number.
