Estate taxes generally must be paid within nine months.
But there might be a way to extend that time frame to more than a decade - if an estate qualifies for a special break.

Which estates are eligible? Those that include a closely-held business or farm that comprises at least 35 percent of the estate's overall value. In these cases, the tax can be spread out over ten years, after a five-year deferral.

However, there is a price: A two percent interest rate applies to some of the deferred tax. 

Contact Paul Brick, CFP® for help in planning how to pay off an estate tax bill. He can help to determine the best route to take. You can reach Paul at 717-757-6999 or 800-745-8233 or send him an email by using the form below.
