Gifts by Will

S 161(7) provides that interest on taxes payable for a year should be computed without reference to any reduction of tax payable resulting from the carryback of donation credits where a gift is made in a subsequent taxation year.

The CRA does allow a terminal return to be filed that reduces taxes payable for gifts that an estate will make in a subsequent year.
