00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:36.600
Well, good afternoon, Michiganders, and welcome back to Tuesday with Tom,

2
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:41.320
Michigan's Only podcast where we talk about estate planning, a state, settlement,

3
00:00:41.359 --> 00:00:45.119
and everything in between. As always, I'm your host, Tom Doyle,

4
00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:50.679
estate planning attorney, lifelong Michigander and your guide to planning

5
00:00:51.119 --> 00:00:57.200
for your future. Just a brief recap of our last episode,

6
00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:03.240
Tuesday with Tom turned ten years old. Hard to believe

7
00:01:04.040 --> 00:01:09.120
we've been having this podcast starting in.

8
00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:08.680
Twenty twenty six.

9
00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:11.280
Didn't imagine that it was going to be around here

10
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:14.959
all this time later, but we care heep. We keep

11
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:17.920
hearing from people questions that they have, answers that they're

12
00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:20.840
looking for, and so as long as you've got those

13
00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:25.519
questions and we've got those answers, we will continue along

14
00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:31.200
with hopefully what is a helpful podcast to you as

15
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:34.319
you are looking at planning your own estates or perhaps

16
00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:42.079
even settling an a state. Today's intro talking about updating

17
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:44.920
your estate plan. I've had previous episodes where I talk

18
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:48.480
about the importance update updating your state plan. It's not

19
00:01:48.599 --> 00:01:51.760
something that you simply prepare and stick in a closet

20
00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:57.159
and never look at again. Life changes, circumstances change things

21
00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:03.359
happen that are important and can have significant impacts on

22
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:06.519
your state plan. What we're going to talk about today

23
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:13.400
is there are a couple important both legal and practical

24
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:16.800
changes that have occurred that I at least want to

25
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:34.639
spend some time highlighting for you today. In particular, we

26
00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:38.919
are encouraging our clients and anyone out there who might

27
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:41.800
not be a client but has a state planning documents

28
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:48.080
to consider too very what could be very important possible

29
00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:53.000
updates regarding your state plan. One of those has to

30
00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:56.599
do with trusts and retirement accounts.

31
00:02:56.680 --> 00:02:57.879
Many of you folks out.

32
00:02:57.680 --> 00:03:01.560
There have a living trust and you've gotten IRA or

33
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:05.039
four to one K, and you've considered in the past

34
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:08.560
whether or not you should make that retirement account the

35
00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:14.240
beneficiary of your IRA or your four one K. It

36
00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:18.560
used to be a pretty easy decision in that we

37
00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:21.360
were basically recommending to clients that they would do that

38
00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:24.719
because the trust would qualify as what we call a

39
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:29.199
look through trust, meaning that the benefits would be taxed

40
00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:34.000
to the beneficiary of the trust rather than be taxed

41
00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:37.000
to the trust, which is always going to pay a

42
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:42.919
higher tax. Well, over the last couple years, we've had

43
00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:47.080
a couple federal statutes. We've had the enactment of the

44
00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:51.719
Secure Act and the enactment of SECURE two point zero,

45
00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:56.120
and finally we are in a stage where the IRS

46
00:03:56.240 --> 00:04:02.000
has had enough time to interpret those statutes and how

47
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:07.800
those statutes impact perhaps your decision about whether or not

48
00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:14.560
you should make your trust the beneficiary of retirement accounts.

49
00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:20.040
We start with this premise, we are not your tax advisor,

50
00:04:20.879 --> 00:04:25.920
so in actually answering the question from a tax standpoint

51
00:04:26.360 --> 00:04:28.720
as to whether or not you should or should not

52
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:33.399
make your trust the beneficiary or whether you should include

53
00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:38.360
keep individuals as individuals, that always starts as a conversation

54
00:04:39.240 --> 00:04:45.160
with your tax advisor and with the custodian of your

55
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:49.279
IRA account or your four one K, because they will

56
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:52.519
be in the best position to advise you as to

57
00:04:52.959 --> 00:05:00.240
how they are currently interpreting the IRS decisions on whether

58
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:04.279
or not trust can be used as look through trust,

59
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:08.240
so very important. That's where your conversation needs to start.

60
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:14.079
And once you've had that conversation, if your trust advisor

61
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:17.680
or your custodian says it's okay to go ahead and

62
00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:21.560
have the trust made is the beneficiary and those accounts,

63
00:05:21.800 --> 00:05:26.120
that it's certainly something that we can assist you with doing.

64
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:33.240
But from our standpoint, we have since July twenty two,

65
00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:38.639
twenty twenty five, we no longer included language in our

66
00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:42.439
trust that were designed to make them look make them

67
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:46.639
work as look through trust because we weren't satisfied with

68
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:52.160
the interpretation being done by the IRS that they would qualify.

69
00:05:52.439 --> 00:05:52.759
Well.

70
00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:56.759
Since then, now that we've looked at everything that's been

71
00:05:56.839 --> 00:06:04.800
going on, we are satisfied that with appropriate language added

72
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:10.199
into your trust, that would be either changing the language

73
00:06:10.279 --> 00:06:13.800
that was being used before that date because we had

74
00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:16.920
normal language that we were using previous to that date,

75
00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:21.240
or adding language to any documents trust documents that we

76
00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:26.040
prepared after that date. We strongly recommend that you review

77
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:30.639
having your trust updated so that appropriate language can be

78
00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:35.079
added into that trust so it will be considered as

79
00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:39.040
a look through trust. Again, why is that important? If

80
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:42.959
money is paid from an IRA into or four to

81
00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:46.000
one K in your trust, and if the trust has

82
00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:49.279
to pay the income tax on it, essentially that's going

83
00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:52.240
to be what would be a forty two percent tax.

84
00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:55.199
Why because you're going to have a thirty eight percent

85
00:06:55.240 --> 00:06:59.160
federal tax because it's the highest individual income tax rate

86
00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:02.519
that's how trusts get taxed, and you're going to have

87
00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:06.519
four percent from the State of Michigan. On the other hand,

88
00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:08.920
if it's going to be treated as a look through

89
00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:14.079
trust worthy proceeds come from the IRA flow through the

90
00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:17.759
trust under to distribute out to the beneficiaries. You do

91
00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:20.639
have some time limits on how long that can normally

92
00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:22.959
be done. For most people, that's going to be a

93
00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:26.519
ten year window. But at least when the benefits are

94
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:30.480
distributed out to the beneficiaries, they are going to then

95
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:34.800
be taxed at the beneficiaries income tax rate, which in

96
00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:38.720
most cases is always going to be less than the

97
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:42.279
trust rate. So it's very important whether it's a trust

98
00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:45.399
that we prepared for you had somebody else prepare, that

99
00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:49.319
you review those trusts or have them reviewed to determine

100
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:52.560
whether or not anything should be changed in that trust

101
00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:57.000
in order for it to qualify now as this very

102
00:07:57.079 --> 00:08:01.360
important look through trust. So that's number one big change,

103
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:04.879
something to look at, something to be concerned about, something

104
00:08:04.920 --> 00:08:09.079
for you to view your documents. For the second big

105
00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:11.399
change that's occurred in the State of Michigan, and this

106
00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:16.079
is now a practical matter more than it is a

107
00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:20.040
legal matter, but we're going to talk about financial powers

108
00:08:20.120 --> 00:08:24.040
of attorney. That's the document that you probably have, or

109
00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:25.560
most of you are going to have as part of

110
00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:29.800
your state plan that's designed to give somebody else authority

111
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:33.919
to basically pay your bills, manage your finances for you,

112
00:08:34.480 --> 00:08:43.600
et cetera, in the event that you become incapacitated. Michigan

113
00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:48.799
unfortunately enacted a change in its law that became effective

114
00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:54.440
on July first, twenty twenty four, and that law now

115
00:08:54.600 --> 00:09:00.799
requires a certain section to be in a Michigan power

116
00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:07.600
of attorney, and that section is what's called an agent's acknowledgement. Basically,

117
00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:11.000
it's a section where the people that you named in

118
00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:13.960
your power of attorney are going to have to review

119
00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:16.679
it and they're going to have to sign it, and

120
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:21.960
basically that is their acknowledgement of what they can and

121
00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:30.960
cannot do under your financial power of attorney. Fortunately, the

122
00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:36.320
statute doesn't say any power of attorney that was created

123
00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:41.960
before July first, twenty twenty four is no longer valid,

124
00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:45.720
so they are perfectly valid. So you've got a power

125
00:09:45.720 --> 00:09:49.399
of attorney out there that was prepared in twenty twenty

126
00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:53.759
or twenty eighteen or whatever it happens to be that

127
00:09:53.919 --> 00:10:01.120
power of attorney, according to the statute, is still valid. However, However,

128
00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:05.919
and this is the important caveat financial institutions.

129
00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:06.559
That's going to be.

130
00:10:06.559 --> 00:10:10.279
Your bank, it's going to be your brokerage house, it's

131
00:10:10.279 --> 00:10:13.000
going to be whoever, somebody is trying to use that

132
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:18.679
power of attorney to manage your finances. For may begin

133
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:23.679
to refuse to accept that power of attorney if it

134
00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:30.639
doesn't have that current agent's acknowledgment. So basically gives the

135
00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:34.039
bank or gives the brokerage and out to say, hey,

136
00:10:34.840 --> 00:10:37.600
your power of attorney that's being brought to us does

137
00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:42.080
not have this agent's acknowledgment. Because of that, we are

138
00:10:42.159 --> 00:10:44.519
not going to accept it. And what we found in

139
00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:49.279
our practice, unfortunately, too many banks, too many brokerage firms

140
00:10:49.879 --> 00:10:56.519
are not excited about operating under powers of attorney because

141
00:10:56.519 --> 00:11:01.080
they always have a question about liability. Somebody really prepare

142
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:03.639
this thing? Are we really going to be doing what

143
00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:07.320
this person who's not our client is telling us to do?

144
00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:11.720
So they tend to hesitate when they're looking at accepting

145
00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:14.759
a power of attorney. And so what we are seeing

146
00:11:14.919 --> 00:11:19.519
from some of our clients is that the bank is saying, no,

147
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:23.519
we will not accept this power of attorney because it

148
00:11:23.600 --> 00:11:29.799
doesn't have the current agent's acknowledgement. Now, there's going to

149
00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:32.639
be there's a period of time here before this statute

150
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:36.039
where the statute was changed to require what was called

151
00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:41.960
an agent's acknowledgement and responsibilities, okay, or acknowledgement and responsibilities.

152
00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:44.480
That section is no longer good.

153
00:11:45.200 --> 00:11:49.919
It needs to now have the new agent's acknowledgement as

154
00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:52.240
part and part of your durable power of attorney. The

155
00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:55.600
good news is the good news is, oh that it's

156
00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:58.519
pretty easy to fix. You don't have to have a

157
00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:02.080
whole new power of attorney proof. You simply need to

158
00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:06.759
have the agen's acknowledgement section prepared, add it on to

159
00:12:06.879 --> 00:12:10.200
your existing power of attorney, and then arrange to have

160
00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:17.000
your agent's sign it. Keep in mind this too, if

161
00:12:17.480 --> 00:12:22.879
your agent that you named in your power of attorney

162
00:12:23.440 --> 00:12:27.600
doesn't have the appropriate agen's acknowledgment and they go to

163
00:12:27.679 --> 00:12:30.840
the bank and the bank says, I'm sorry, we can't

164
00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:35.919
accept that power of attorney because it doesn't have the

165
00:12:36.000 --> 00:12:40.240
agent's acknowledgment. Well, in all probability, you at that point

166
00:12:40.320 --> 00:12:46.039
are incapacitated and if you're incapacitated, you don't have the

167
00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:50.919
legal ability to now change your power of attorney. And

168
00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:53.279
if you don't have the legal ability to change your

169
00:12:53.320 --> 00:12:56.399
power of attorney, then you don't have the legal ability

170
00:12:56.519 --> 00:13:02.919
to add the agent's acknowledgment. And therefore the whole point

171
00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:07.200
of your having the power of attorney to avoid forcing

172
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:10.960
your agent to go to court to have themselves appointed

173
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:15.679
as your conservator could end up being defeated. So it's

174
00:13:15.799 --> 00:13:19.840
very important. Even though your power of attorney is still

175
00:13:19.879 --> 00:13:24.039
legally valid, it is a practical application of the law

176
00:13:24.120 --> 00:13:27.840
that you may well run into. And if that happens

177
00:13:27.879 --> 00:13:31.600
to you, then that's going to be complicated. Now what

178
00:13:31.720 --> 00:13:34.360
some clients are doing, I know they're doing this. They're

179
00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:36.639
going to their bank and taking in the current power

180
00:13:36.639 --> 00:13:38.840
of attorney and say, hey, this is what we have

181
00:13:39.080 --> 00:13:43.159
now is this going to be used by you? But

182
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:46.360
even if the manager today says yes, it will be,

183
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:49.440
that doesn't mean the manager next week isn't going to

184
00:13:49.480 --> 00:13:52.360
say differently. Because here's what happens in the real world

185
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:58.679
with banks. Banks have lawyers. Lawyers look at the changes

186
00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:01.600
of the law and then they're going to issue, if

187
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:06.120
you will, directions to the bank, and one of those directions,

188
00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:10.240
quite freakly is, hey, when someone brings in a power

189
00:14:10.240 --> 00:14:13.519
of attorney, these are the things that it has to

190
00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:16.320
have in it in order for us to accept it.

191
00:14:16.799 --> 00:14:19.080
And so you're basically dealing with a clerk or a

192
00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:22.679
manager who's kind of looking through this list, and generally

193
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:25.519
that list is now going to say it needs to

194
00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:30.039
have an agen's acknowledgement and the agents have to have

195
00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:33.399
signed it. And the minute they look at your power

196
00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:36.919
of attorney and they don't see a section that's called

197
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:42.240
agent's acknowledgement, they are most likely or very probably going

198
00:14:42.279 --> 00:14:48.720
to deny accepting that power of attorney by your agent.

199
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:52.879
So very important to you that you look at making

200
00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:56.279
sure your financial powers attorney are in place, because obviously

201
00:14:56.279 --> 00:14:59.519
they can be very very important documents. I mean, hopefully.

202
00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:03.720
It's interesting with the estate planning that we do. If

203
00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:05.960
we prepare an estate plan, let's say you've got a

204
00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:09.679
living trust. We know the living trust one day will

205
00:15:09.679 --> 00:15:12.279
be used for distributing your estate.

206
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:15.039
We don't know if you're going to become.

207
00:15:14.799 --> 00:15:18.639
Incapacitated, but we have financial powers of attorney just in

208
00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:21.399
case you do. We don't know if you're ever going

209
00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:24.919
to be unable to make medical decisions for yourself, but

210
00:15:25.039 --> 00:15:27.840
we have powers of attorney just in case you do.

211
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:31.000
Even when you have a trust, if you listen to

212
00:15:31.080 --> 00:15:33.600
previous episodes of the program, you're going to have a

213
00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:37.879
will because it might turn out that something fell through

214
00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:40.480
the cracks and end up having to go through probate,

215
00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:44.279
and then we want to make sure when probate's done

216
00:15:44.559 --> 00:15:46.960
that those assets are put into your trust as part

217
00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:47.759
of the distribution.

218
00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:49.559
Hopefully you don't have an.

219
00:15:49.559 --> 00:15:52.879
Estate that goes through probate, but you have a poor

220
00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:56.159
overwilled just in case. So a lot of documents get

221
00:15:56.159 --> 00:15:59.519
prepared as part of a state plan, hoping that they

222
00:15:59.559 --> 00:16:03.639
will never get used, but they serve a very important

223
00:16:03.679 --> 00:16:08.279
purpose when they do, because they are again avoiding people

224
00:16:08.360 --> 00:16:10.960
having to go to the probate court to get themselves

225
00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:14.720
appointed as your conservator or to get themselves appointed as

226
00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:20.240
your guardian, and so they are very important documents as

227
00:16:20.320 --> 00:16:25.480
part of an overall estate plan. Now, if you happen

228
00:16:25.519 --> 00:16:30.519
