[_EXEC_ADMIN_NAME_] [_EXEC_ADMIN_ADD_] [_EXEC_ADMIN_ADD_2_] [_Date_] [_Heir_Legatee_] [_Heir_Legatee_Add_] [_Heir_Legatee_Add_2_] Dear [_Heir_Legatee_Sal_] : I am writing this letter to each of the principal [_Heirs_Legatees_] of the Succession of [_Decedent_] to advise that I do not plan to charge a fee for my work as [_Succ_Rep_] of this succession, but that I will perform the duties of this office without compensation. Would you please acknowledge receipt of this letter on the enclosed copy (just sign your name and date it) and mail it back to me in the enclosed, stamped envelope. Please forgive the formality of this letter, but I have been advised to formally waive the fee in question because if I do not do so it is possible that the fee might be "imputed income" to me (income not actually received but nevertheless subject to possible income tax). Thank you for your cooperation in returning the enclosed acknowledgment. Yours Truly, [_EXEC_ADMIN_NAME_] * * * * * * * * * * FEE WAIVER - NOTICE BY SUCCESSION REPRESENTATIVE OF FEE WAIVER - F2BFEEWV : If the succession representative does not plan to charge a fee (or plans to charge a reduced fee), it is wise to give formal notice of this fact to avoid the possibility of income being imputed to him or her for income tax and/or gift tax purposes (even though the income is not actually received).
