Will my ex husband be subject to any gift tax if he gives me and our two adult children $100,000 each in cash in one year?

    The annual gift exclusion is $15,000 to each individual so he will have to file a gift tax return (Form 709). 

     

    However, he will not have to pay gift tax until he exceeds his lifetime exemption of $11.4 million.

    Thank you very much.  That's what I thought too.
