ANSWER:

The federal gift tax is applicable to the transfers of property from one individual to another when the recipient doesn't pay the fair market value for the property. In the scenario of gifts of cash, the recipient doesn't provide anything of value in exchange for the money.

In general, an individual who gives a gift must file a Federal gift tax return (IRS Form 709) if the total value of all the gifts he make to a single person within the same calendar year is more than $15,000 as of 2018. Gifts that don't exceed $15,000 per year to the same individual are qualified for the annual exclusion from gift taxes.
