How do I obtain an Inheritance and Estate Transfer Tax Receipt, Form IETT-20?
An Inheritance & Estate Transfer Tax Receipt, Form IETT-20 is prepared after the inheritance tax return is filed with LDR, Special Programs Division, P O Box 4998, Baton Rouge, LA 70821-4998. The receipt, issued from LDR’s main office verifies the receipt of the return, its supporting documentation, and tax due, if any, when the death occurred before July 1, 2004. Inheritance tax returns should not be sent to any of our Regional Offices, and those offices cannot issue the required receipts. For deaths that occurred after June 30, 2004, an inheritance tax return is not required to be filed and Form IETT-20, Inheritance and Estate Transfer Tax Receipt will not be issued.
