Below is a screenshot of the other entry I tried. I entered the amount under "Estate tax deduction..." in the Other Deductible Expenses section.
The correct figure appeared on Line 16 of Schedule A, of course, but then so did the description ("Federal Estate Tax").
I did an override of the description only (Trust Expenses). The program complained about that in the final review so the return might have to be paper filed. However, I cannot see where there would be a serious issue with the actual figure on Line 16 since that figured was entered during the Interview and not Forms Mode.
"Go to the section to enter investment interest expense, it will bring up a window after interest expense..."
To the best of my knowledge, the following is about as close as they have come to date.
In TT I believe now ther is a place to enter them.... just somewhat hidden.
Go to the section to enter investment interest expense, it will bring up a window after interest expense to enter other investment expenses. i have not tested it but, it looks promising.
Finalized:
https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i1041.pdf "Deductions allowable under section 67(e). Miscellaneous itemized deductions subject to the 2% floor aren’t deductible for tax years 2018 through 2025. However, deductions under section 67(e)(1) continue to be deductible if they are costs that are incurred in connection with the administration of an estate or a non-grantor trust that would not have been incurred if the property were not held in such estate or trust. See Notice 2018-61 for more information. Also see Regulations section 1.67-4 for costs that are commonly or customarily incurred by an individual. "
