Legal Question in Tax Law in Georgia

Gift money and money transfer from overseas

My mom wants to sell her property from overseas for our new house in the US for our new baby, may be around $250,000. She lives in Hong Kong and is not a US citizen.

If we are going to declare the money to transfer to the US, what are the normal tax bracket we are looking at? (percentage wise)

Are there any other ways to lower the taxation on the transfer by investment or any other forms?

Re: Gift money and money transfer from overseas

You should consult an estate and tax attorney. If structured correctly, you may be able to not have gift tax.

I hope this helps!
