(b) Waiver of deductions.-- If the right to any deduction otherwise
allowable is waived for federal estate tax purposes, it shall be
considered waived for New York estate tax purposes.
(c) Qualified terminable interest property election.-- Except as
otherwise provided in this subsection, the election referred to in
paragraph (7) of subsection (b) of section 2056 of the internal revenue
code shall not be allowed under this article unless such election was
made with respect to the federal estate tax return required to be filed
under the provisions of the internal revenue code. If such election was
made for the purposes of the federal estate tax, then such election must
also be made by the executor on the return of the tax imposed by this
article. Where no federal estate tax return is required to be filed, the
executor must make the election referred to in such paragraph (7) with

imposed by this article. Any election made under this subsection shall
be irrevocable.
