Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the tax implications of a gift from a mother-in-law to her son-in-law. While a son-in-law isn't a 'specified relative' in the strictest sense, he is considered a relative through the spouse. Therefore, gifts received from a mother-in-law are generally exempt from income tax, regardless of the amount.
Gift can be received from any lineal ascendant or descendant of the spouse of the individual. Mother of spouse (mother in law) is lineal ascendant. Hence mother in law is a specified relative.
