I received a Form 1099-DIV for an Asset Protection Trust created in May of 2017 using an EIN. How do I file the first Tax Return for the Trust?

I cannot include it with my tax return because it is not under my social security number.

"How do I file the first Tax Return for the Trust?"

You would need TurboTax Business (not Home & Business) to file a Form 1041 for the trust. 

However, since this is almost certainly a grantor trust, you can use one of the optional filing methods.
