An Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust, often referred to as an ILIT, is an estate planning tool that can help reduce, if not eliminate, an estate tax due at your death. It is a common misconception that life insurance is not part of one's taxable estate at death.

By moving the policy to an ILIT, the trust takes ownership of the policy, and the policy's value is out of your taxable estate.
