In general, irrevocable trusts cannot be changed by the trustor once they are established. These trusts are designed to be permanent and the trust assets are no longer considered part of the trustor's estate. However, some irrevocable trusts may include provisions that allow for certain changes to be made under specific circumstances.
Some commonly used policies in estate planning to fund irrevocable trusts include life insurance policies, retirement accounts, and gifting strategies. These assets can be transferred into the irrevocable trust to provide financial security for beneficiaries and potentially reduce estate taxes.
