For inheritance tax purposes, heirs and legatees are classified according to their relationship to the deceased. The classes are as follows: • Direct descendants or ascendants, by blood, adoption, or affinity, or surviving spouse of a decedent. • Collaterals, including brothers or sisters by affinity and their descendants. • Strangers.
