My mother put her house into an irrevocable trust for her children. The agreement structuring the trust requires her to pay a fixed amount monthly to cover local real estate taxes, property insurance, and housing association fees. In turn, the trust pays the actual bills directly (from a bank account associated with the trust EIN). The payments slightly exceed the expenses (by less than $100/month). When considering income and deductions for the purpose of filing form 1041, are deposits/withdrawals into the trust bank account included as part of the net income calculation? Or is "income" intended to cover only actual/real income, such as interest from the associated bank account?
