Gift Tax Law
  All States      
Who must file and pay the federal gift tax?

Only individuals are required to file the Gift Tax returns. If the giver dies before filing a return, the executor must file.

The gift-giver is responsible for paying the Gift Tax. If a trust or estate makes the gift, the individual beneficiaries are considered the gift-givers (the donors). If the donor does not pay, the recipient has to pay the tax.
