Trusts & Estates
Form 1041 and appropriate fiduciary income tax matters, including trust and estate K-1 reporting for beneficiaries.
Fiduciary returns raise their own set of questions: what income stays with the trust, what is carried out to beneficiaries, and how the K-1s should read. Trustees and executors are often serving in the role for the first time.
ESBS works with trustees, executors and beneficiaries on fiduciary income tax filings and on the individual returns that receive the resulting K-1s. Our tax team can review the governing documents, prior filings and accounting records to determine the appropriate scope.
The appropriate treatment depends upon the specific facts and the terms of the instrument.
