How much money can you give tax free to a spouse who is not a us citizen?

For tax purposes, you can give an unlimited amount of money to your spouse who is not a U.S. citizen without incurring gift taxes, but this is under the provision of the annual exclusion limit. For 2023, the annual exclusion for gifts is $17,000 per recipient. However, when gifting to a non-citizen spouse, any amount above the annual exclusion must be reported on a gift tax return, and the lifetime gift tax exemption may apply. Always consult with a tax professional for specific advice tailored to your situation.
