I received a 1099-int for a grantor trust with its own EIN #.  I am the trustee.  How to report the int income in turbotax on my return.

    Below is a link to the IRS web site re the options you may have for filing:

    Generally, though, if you give the EIN of the trust to payors and they issue a 1099 to the trust with the trust's EIN, you need to file a 1041 and a grantor letter containing the items of income which you would then report on your personal income tax return.
