I'm just glad I married a fellow U.S. citizen. Navigating these non-citizen spouse tax rules sounds like a real nightmare. Guess I dodged a bullet there!

D? Really? Well, I'm stumped. Maybe I should've paid more attention in my estate planning class instead of doodling caricatures of the professor the whole time.

Hmm, I was pretty sure it was C. Both statements seem reasonable at first glance. Guess I need to brush up on my non-citizen spouse tax rules.

Wait, so the marital deduction isn't automatically available just because I'm a U.S. citizen? This tax stuff is way more complicated than I thought!

I think the correct answer is D. Neither I nor II is correct. The marital deduction for transfers to a non-citizen spouse has additional requirements beyond just being an outright transfer or the transferor being a U.S. citizen.

But doesn't the question mention that both statements are correct? So, the answer should be C) Both l and ll.
