§6324B — Title 26 Internal Revenue Code | U.S. Code

Summary

Creates a lien in favor of the United States on farm or timber property when an owner files the special election under section 2032A. The lien equals the extra estate tax that can be charged because the property qualified for the lower valuation. The lien starts when the election is filed and stays until the extra tax is paid, becomes unenforceable because time ran out, or the IRS agrees no more tax can be charged. “Qualified real property” means the kinds of farm or similar land covered by section 2032A. It also includes qualified replacement property and qualified exchange property (see sections 2032A(h)(3)(B) and 2032A(i)(3)). Certain rules from section 6324A(d) apply to this lien. The IRS may allow a bond or other security instead of keeping the lien, under rules the Secretary issues.
