I have POA for aunt who is 90. Her assets were in her name until a year ago. POA gives me right to gift.

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
If you give gifts, those gifts will cause a Medicaid penalty.  You can't give gifts as part of the spend down even though the POA probably says you can give gifts.

Revocable trust

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
If the trustee of the trust is also the grantor, a revocable trust usually indicates that upon the death of the grantor/trustee, the assets held in the trust are distributed.  The grantor/trustee could direct that the assets are distributed to the estate, or to beneficiaries, or can remain in trust with the second trust taking over.  What happens is all dependent on the terms of the trust.

I want to know if you can remain anonymous when collecting Lottery Winnings in New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania.

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
You can remain anonymous, however, the lottery winnings are taxed, and a tax paying entity must be identified.  It is my undesigning that you can establish a trust, obtain a tax payer identification number for the trust, and allow the trust to accept the lottery winnings.  The trust would then be taxed.
