   Annuities that generate a gain, cash values beyond the original basis or contributions are taxed as ordinary income tax rates of the owner of the annuity. Although an annuity can bypass probate, it may be subject to federal and/or state of residence estate tax depending on the size of the estate in relationship to the federal unified credit and the state of residence exemptions limits.
