§ 15104.3. Transfer of Separate Property into Joint Tenancy.
Unless otherwise indicated it is assumed in this regulation that the transfers were not made for an adequate and full consideration in money or money's worth.
If A and B with their own separate and individual funds create a joint bank or similar account between them, any lawful and rightful withdrawal from the account by A or B in excess of his contribution will constitute a gift from the other at the time of such withdrawal.
If A and B with their own separate and individual funds purchase a United States savings bond in both names, i.e., payable to A or B, upon the lawful and rightful surrender of the bond for cash any amount received by A or B in excess of his contribution will constitute a gift from the other at the time of such cashing of the bond.
(1) Personal Property. If A with his own separate property creates a joint tenancy in personal property, other than a joint bank or similar account or a joint United States savings bond, in favor of himself and B there is a gift from A to B of one-half of the property at the time that the tenancy is created.
If A and B with their own separate and individual property create a joint tenancy in personal property, other than a joint bank or similar account or a joint United States savings bond, in favor of themselves, each makes a gift to the other of that portion of his contribution which exceeds his one-half equal interest in the tenancy.
If A and B, two individuals who are not husband and wife, with their own separate property create a joint tenancy in real property in favor of themselves, each makes a gift to the other of that portion of his contribution which exceeds his one-half equal interest in the tenancy.
(B) If A with his own separate property created, prior to September 11, 1957, a joint tenancy in real property in favor of himself and his spouse, B, or if A and B, husband and wife, with their own separate property created, prior to September 11, 1957, a joint tenancy in real property in favor of themselves, the rules applicable regarding the making of a gift are the same as in subdivision (c)(2)(A) of this regulation.
