How to Use the New Jersey Inheritance Tax Calculator

Questo strumento stima New Jersey Transfer Inheritance Tax for planning and checklist prep. Results are illustrative; the Division of Taxation’s review and issued esenzioni fiscali (or L-8/L-9 where eligible) control closings and transfers.

  1. Selezionare la residenza (resident or nonresident).
    • Resident decedent: Analyze transfers to Classe C/D beneficiaries; Classe A (spouse/DP, lineal, parents, stepchildren) are exempt but may still need waivers.
    • Nonresident decedent: Include only Proprietà immobiliare NJ-situs e beni personali tangibili. Intangibles (bank/brokerage/stock) are generally excluded unless there is a New Jersey business situs.
  2. Enter asset values
    • Utilizzo date-of-death fair market value (appraisal for real property recommended; credible guides/invoices for tangibles).
    • If trusts/life estates/QTIP are involved, enter the underlying value of NJ-situs assets potentially taxable when possession/enjoyment shifts at death.
  3. Add beneficiaries by class
    • For each recipient, pick Class A / C / D and enter the amount attributable to NJ-situs assets.
    • The calculator applies class-specific esenzioni e tariffe and totals the estimated tax.
  4. Review your results
    • Per-beneficiary lines: class, exemption used, taxable amount, computed tax.
    • Estate total: sum of all lines = estimated NJ inheritance tax.
    • Timing cue: Returns are due 8 mesi after death; interest accrues on unpaid tax after that date.
  5. Export or print the worksheet
    • Attach to your IT-R (resident) or IT-NR (nonresident) drafting file and use as a schedule for beneficiaries/valuations.
    • Plan waiver logistics: L-8/L-9 for eligible Class A scenarios; otherwise wait for Division-issued waivers.

Suggerimenti: (1) Build a beneficiary class matrix before data entry. (2) In life-estate → remainder cases to Class C/D, model potential full-value inclusion when the interest shifts at death. (3) For nonresidents, confirm where tangibles were physically located/garaged at death and document it.
