The most well-known NICS-rule-reversal reform, Uniform Probate Code section 2-707, negates the transferor’s reversion, but other reforms do not. When the reversion is not negated, complicated transfer tax issues arise. First, for gift tax purposes, the reversion must be valued, because the value of the reversion is subtracted in …
