How does the IRS know if I give a gift?

The primary way the IRS becomes aware of gifts is when you report them on form 709. You are required to report gifts to an individual over $15,000 on this form. This is how the IRS will generally become aware of a gift. However, form 709 is not the only way the IRS will know about a gift. Jun 16, 2021
