Bloomberg claims the IRS has announced a $5,250,000 exemption for the estate and related taxes. See
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-01-11/irs-increases-exemption-from-estate-tax-to-5-25-million.html
However, I cannot find any proof. They do not cite any IRS announcement. The following is the link to where new IRS announcements are listed:

We shall see.
