Gift Tax History
Q:
Subject: Re: Help!Is there a way to find out what the annual tax free allowance for gift tax was back in 1957?
Thank you!!!!!!
A:
It was $3,000 during the years 1943-1981.
I found this via a Google search that led me to this post from Paul Caron.
If you download the report he cites, you will see a very comprehensive history of the Gift Tax.
