You stated earlier that the decedent's home was in a trust and you were trying to prepare a 1041 for the sale of that home.
Does other property (assets) exist other than the decedent's home?
You continue to vacillate between "trust" and "estate" and it is not clear if there is even a filing requirement for the estate or if there are any assets or income attributable to the estate.
See https://www.irs.gov/instructions/i1041#en_US_2022_publink1000285942
Beneficiaries receive K-1s if there are items of income, gain/loss, deductions, or credits they need to report on their tax returns as a result of the pass through from the estate or trust. They do not prepare the 8949 for the estate or trust.
I am certain Mike (and others, myself included) are ready and willing to assist you but, frankly, if you are not cognizant of the fundamentals (such as the difference between an estate and a trust or which party should prepare which form or schedule), then you really should seek guidance from a local professional (and note that none of the foregoing addresses any state issues that may exist or arise).
