This program allows
a client to exchange an under performing or unsuitable annuity for another financial instrument that provides tax benefits
and a secure income starting now or in the future.
Using an IRS recognized
501(c)(3) public charity, we can exchange your current annuity at the full accumulation value for a tax-deductible installment
income plan.
The installment plan
is a contract that pays income for a guaranteed number of years regardless of age, can have an unlimited number of named beneficiaries
on a single contract, and is defined in general in Section 453 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
This is an opportunity
to exchange a variety of assets including annuities with surrender fees.
Here is how the
exchange works:
q You transfer
ownership of your current annuity to a qualified participating charity by completing a simple change of ownership form.
q The charity
absorbs all surrender penalties and issues a new installment contract at the full accumulation value.
q A guaranteed,
fixed, payout can begin immediately or it can be deferred, depending on your wishes, and the payout stream can be directed
to children or heirs, guaranteed for any period of years you choose.
q You receive
a generous tax deduction. This deduction can be applied to your current income tax return and is used to lower your adjusted
gross income reported to the IRS by up to 50% for the 1st year and 5 years of carry-forward, if applicable.
q At your death,
any unpaid installments are paid to your named beneficiary. The beneficiaries do not have to be charitable beneficiaries.
