There are two ways to make such a gift without penalizing your heirs:
- Designate the Foundation as the beneficiary of the life insurance policy.
- The life insurance policy is assigned to the Quebec AIDS Foundation, which becomes the owner and beneficiary of the policy.
BENEFITS
- This can be used to offset your annual income tax assessment as long as you pay the annual premium on the policy.
- The Foundation issues an official receipt to the donor’s estate, which becomes a 100% tax deductible credit and any excess amount can be applied to the donor’s return for the year prior to death.
