Effective Exemption Amount As well, EGTRRA decreased the top rates for federal estate and gift taxes in steps until they reached 45% in 2007 In 2010, it repealed the federal estate tax, set the top tax rate for gifts equal to the top tax rate for individual income, and put in place complex rules and limits for stepped‐up basis But EGTRRA itself is scheduled to “sunset” after 2010, returning us to a $1 million unified exemption amount and a 55% top tax rate 24
