Need options/ways to handle a post death 1099-LTC
•father died in Oct 2021, was in a LTC facility 2021 (expenses), LTC policy company never paid any 2021 benefits
•2021 was father’s final personal tax return
•LTC lawsuit (by estate) settlement paid out in late 2022 (year after death)...$30K
•received 2022 1099-LTC, box 1 $30K, Box 3 per diem, box 4 qual contract, with fathers SSN as TIN (not the post death trust account TIN)
How might I handle this?
Should the 2022 1099-LTC have been recorded to the post death trust account TIN?
Do I file an amended 2021 for fathers personal taxes (but it’s a 2022 1099-LTC)?
Do I File a 2022 personal tax return (after final 2021)?
Can I xfer the 1099-LTC from personal TIN to the estate's Trust TIN?
