Can I delay taking estate expenses this year to the final return next year?

I think you mean that you have an estate that has expenses and you want to report those on next year's estate tax return? If so, no, they must be reported on the estate tax return for the year in which they were incurred.

Yes, that's what I mean. Thanks for the reply and clarification.
