Thanks so much for the tutorials, they're so helpful!
Thank you so much for making these videos....very well done.
I'm glad they were helpful. Thank you for watching!
Thank you for the video. It is very well done. I do not see the income section of Form 1041 asking about the “Tax-exempt interest”. Does that mean that Tax-Exempt Income is not taxable?
Hi Jason, thanks for the helpful video. I am filing the final 1041 for a decedent's estate -- i.e. 2022 was the final year of the estate. Is it correct that I do not complete Schedule B in this case? The two beneficiaries received in 2022 proceeds of one fund (liquidated), which included capital gains.
This is a great video, and I have a question about a trust that was liquidated in 2022 and all tax paid by the trust prior to sending out the money owed to each beneficiary. Since there was no income earned in 2022, do we just send out the schedule K-1 1041 to each beneficiary with all of the financial boxes left blank? Please help!
Great video, thank you!
Glad it helped!
Thank you sir.
When making §645 election in a 1041 complex trust and marking the 645 election box what TIN should I use? the descendant's SSN and on box "c" of the 1041 (2021) the EIN of the trust?
My mom sold an estate property last year (2021) but no distributions were made. I'm helping her with the estate income return and I understand that the K1's will be blank for the taxes we file this year. However, my question is if my mom does the distributions in 2022 how would we fill out the K1's next year? The capital gains would already be paid this year for the 2021 taxes so we wouldn't be passing on any tax liability next year. Would the K1's just be blank again in 2022 and be listed as the final K1's?
SUPER AMAZING
Hi Jason! Great video!! Will you please make another Form 1041 video that has qualified dividends to a beneficiary?
How to report a distribution of the income to the beneficiary and generate a K-1?
Hey Jason, very behind on trust taxes and I cannot find the 1041 form for the year 2021. Any advice on where I can print that pdf and other relative PDFs concerning K1 and schedule D?
Thank you for the video, did you ever put up an example of a complex trust with distributions? I am stuck on one area
Thanks for watching! We don't have a video yet, but it is added to the queue of videos to be created and posted. So check back soon!
Jason
My dad passed August 2021.
I didn't get an EIN and account until March 2022.
Whatever the attorney did, it made filing for 1041 deadline as April of 2023 now?
Nothing was sold from the estate in 2021 and nothing distributed. So did I need to file a 1041 for 2021 for zero dollars? And then do I need to (or should I have) file another 1041 for the this tax year to show dad's house selling while in probate to pay the debts?
Are there any other forms that need to be filed with irs before submitting 1041 with irs?
This video was great! you said you were going to do another video for those whose beneficieries who have had distributions from the trust. Did you make that video? I'm the trustee for my brother's trust and he does receive a very small income from it, paid out of an investment account that is in the trust.
Once the trustee(lawyer) hands the account over to the beneficiary it was set up for, Let's say the person get full control at 21 years old, and the trustee transfers full control to that person. Does the beneficiary have to file another k1 themselfs the next tax season after a final return on a complex trust?
Hi Jason, very instructive video. I am trustee of a complex trust that is making actual cash distributions to beneficiaries during the year. If the trust earned income during the year, am I compelled to report that interest income as distributable net income (DNI) on the 1041 (or, alternatively, do I have the discretion to declare zero DNI and pay taxes on that income from the Trust rather than passing back income on the K-1 to the Beneficiaries?).
Hi Tom,
Yes, 1041 will be filed as there is interest income and if all income are getting passed out to beneficiaries there will be no taxes at trust level. However it's mandatory to file 1041 if income is exceeding $600
. Hope this helps
Hi Jason, I had an Aunt Die 04/26/2021, What time frame do I use for the 1041, also I have other issues with 1040 coming up and a 709 to file. Could you help? Fee of course.
The Form 1041 is filed to report the income earned within the estate, while a Form 706 is filed to compute a tax on the assets of the estate. Most taxpayers do not need to file a Form 706.
We would be happy to help. You can email us at: info@knottpllc.com
Hi Jason. First, I appreciated this instructional video. But in my particular case, I am filling out the final 1041 with Schedule K-1s (3 beneficiaries). It's an irrevocable complex trust. Interest income was only $1380. That's it for total income and nothing else. I understand that each beneficiary has to share that interest income. What I don't understand (besides trying to figure out how to fill out the final form 1041 and schedule B) is how much does each beneficiary share and what number is inserted in line 1 (interest income) on the schedule K-1? Is it the total, $1380/3, or $1280/3 (minus the $100 exemption), or is it the taxable amount which is $128/3? Do you happen to have a video that explains how to fill out the 1041 form with more than one beneficiary in this particular scenario? I do know that since the trust is closed, the trust does not pay the taxes on this income. Help!
Thanks for watching! It is difficult to answer this in the abstract, without reading the full trust agreement and seeing an accounting of the trust income, expenses, and DNI. Generally, every beneficiary should receive a Schedule K-1, and the percentages are allocated according to whatever is outlined in the trust agreement. Pay careful attention to income vs remainder beneficiaries, as those are treated differently. If you have 3 beneficiaries to share equally, then each would receive a 1/3 allocation.
great job jason! i thumbed it and subs'd. However, i didn't see a long term or short term capital stock gain example? i know on 1040, the LT gains are zero taxes from 40 to 80k depending on filing status, any truth with that w/ estates taxes? thanks!
Yup, the irrevocable trusts and estates do have favorable tax rates for LT capital gains up to certain income levels. The 0% tax rate for LT gains applies for amounts up to $2,700. This assumes the trust doesn't distribute any income to the beneficiaries.
@@JasonDKnott thanks jason where do i see those instructions and more info on the long term cap. gains for 2021 year, or websites? does schedule D account and calculate for the 0% up to 2700 on the sheet?
hey Jason, didn't hear back, I don't see the 2700 -zero tax rate section on schedule D or G instructions/worksheet, where can I find that if you kindly direct me? thank you!
@@JasonDKnott do you know the income levels that 2700 falls under, right now I have 1099 -div, short and long term gains compilign about 17k+, and wondering if i'd b safe just calculating it thru section G tax rate buckets?
the way the contract is set up is i take no salary. as a trustee all of the trustee expenses is paid. food, shelter, healthcare is all paid. trustee get to live on property for free for trustee services. since the trust is under common law, no itemizing just deduction. the style of trust is considered a foreign entity.
How far back can one go back to do this?
Hello Jason, my uncle's mom passed away October 2020. The deceased mother received a notice from IRS in May 2021 because she never filed 1041 since 2011. The mother filed only 1040 every year before she died. Now the IRS wanted them to file 1041 from 2011 to 2020. If he complies with the IRS what will show in the 1041 for 10 years?
The trust should first establish whether it actually needed to file Form 1041s for the prior years. If the trust was a grantor trust, generally no separate filings are required because all of the income & expense is reported directly on the grantors tax return. If the trust was a nongrantor trust with income over the annual thresholds, then it may have been required to file Form 1041s for those prior years.
Hi Jason, In was given a distribution from my deceased daughter trust. Am I to pay taxes on this? If so what kind of tax, would it be inherited tax or what? I did receive a 1099-NEC and a 1099 MISC from her Estate
Estate & trust taxation is incredibly complex. Generally, when a beneficiary of a trust or estate receives a distribution, the trust/estate files a Form 1041 and the beneficiary receives a K-1 to report the income allocation and distribution, which is ultimately reported on the beneficiaries tax return. If you also received Forms 1099-NEC & MISC, then those amounts are likely in connection with your personal services provided to manage the trust, which is treated as compensation. My recommendation is to contact a U.S. tax advisor to opine on the trust taxes and prepare your Form 1040.
Can you do more videos about trust and estate planning? This video is great
Yes! We are adding more videos to the playlist soon. Thank you for watching!
Hello, And thank you for the detail video..
I'm the trustee for a "special needs trust" , so disabled person. will not receive funds or payout. the trust is set for upkeep and on the home, taxes insurance.. etc. would that still be a complex trust?
Generally, a complex trust is any trust where the trustee is not required to distribute all of the income to the beneficiary. There are also special rules for qualified disability trusts. I would consult with the attorney that drafted the trust agreement before filing any tax returns.
Can you do a video on a 1041 for a charitable lead annuity trust ( grantor irrevocable)
Hello. I filed 1040 in 2020 as an LLC sole member. 2021 I added my husband as a member (did not update or get new EIN), that being said, do I need to file1065 as a partnership? If, so is this will be an Initial return as 1065? By the way, we file married joint.
Generally, a two member LLC is treated as a partnership for federal tax purposes and needs a Form 1065. For married couples that own an LLC, there are other rules depending upon where you live. We have a video that discusses the issue here: ua-cam.com/video/mQ6pQKoVZlM/v-deo.html
Hi Jason, I‘m a surviving spouse in the process of preparing 1041 ’Decedent‘s estate’. I am the only beneficiary and no distribution from the estate yet. Do I still need to file Schedule K-1? Thanks!
The K-1s are included with the Form 1041 regardless of whether there are any distributions. If there are no distributions, then the K-1 would show zero amounts for income and expense, because nothing has been distributed.
good video.
Thanks!
What i would do first before I filled out a federal form and sign it undee penalty of perjury is to a F.O.A.I. Request for my IMF and no it's not those guys its for Individual Master File. The first line item is your requirement to fill said form out above. Now it's a little tricker than of course for even a federal judge will not risk decoding the numbers and CODES in live court least the veil be lifted from your eyes. You have some work cut out and the irs can not provide which you need to escalate in such cases.
Best of luck and have fun!
Yes, never hurts to have all of the information about you that is on file with the IRS. You can also download Account Transcripts and the Wage & Income Transcripts from the IRS website. However, the number of years available online is usually limited.
How do you update BNC for this example?
What do you mean by BNC?
Does NYC/state have a form needed to be filled out?
If the trust or estate is a New York resident, then it must file an IT-205
Can you do 1041 for an estate?
Hi Jason, Great video, however; I usually don't file taxes as we have another source do that for us. My mother-in-law passed away and this video still seems to be a bit confusing as her taxes were very simple and she had a CPA in the family do her taxes. The IRS site doesn't really provide information on what I really need to provide as well. Her 1041 should be very simple, could you please do a video for a Descendants Estate? In addition, there wasn't a trust established.
Hi Jason, can you help me?
Hi Jason, thanks for the video. I have a question. A family trust was set up 20+ years ago with my sister and I being beneficiaries. No income has been realized or distributed and will not be as long as my mother is living. My mother sold her home in 2021 in which the proceeds were deposited in a separate trust bank account. Will I need to file a separate 1041 return for the trust because of the sale of the home, or can I include it in my mom's 1040 federal return and not worry about filing a 1041?
It depends upon whether the trust is a grantor or non grantor trusts for federal tax purposes. I have another video that discusses these issues here: ua-cam.com/video/omKYkb0ph6w/v-deo.html
@@JasonDKnott Thank you Jason.
Do you sign it
Yes, the trustee or fiduciary of the trust should sign the Form 1041. If the return was paid by a paid tax return preparer, the tax preparer should also sign.
I would never talk to a client like this....Populate etc 10 cent words at best
