Terminable Interest (QTIP) Marital Deduction. (see instructions for Schedule A, Part 4, line 4)
If a trust (or other property) meets the requirements of qualified terminable interest property under section 2523(f), and:
a. The trust (or other property) is listed on Schedule A, and
b. The value of the trust (or other property) is entered in whole or in part as a deduction on Schedule A, Part 4, line 4,
then the donor shall be deemed to have made an election to have such trust (or other property) treated as qualified terminable interest property under
section 2523(f).
If less than the entire value of the trust (or other property) that the donor has included in Parts 1 and 3 of Schedule A is entered as a deduction on line
4, the donor shall be considered to have made an election only as to a fraction of the trust (or other property). The numerator of this fraction is equal to
the amount of the trust (or other property) deducted on Schedule A, Part 4, line 6. The denominator is equal to the total value of the trust (or other
property) listed in Parts 1 and 3 of Schedule A.
If you make the QTIP election, the terminable interest property involved will be included in your spouse’s gross estate upon his or her death (section
2044). See instructions for line 4 of Schedule A. If your spouse disposes (by gift or otherwise) of all or part of the qualifying life income interest, he or
she will be considered to have made a transfer of the entire property that is subject to the gift tax. See Transfer of Certain Life Estates Received From
Spouse in the instructions.
