Hi Experts,
I am the court appointed probate admin of my brother's estate. He died in Jan 2022. And in 4/2022 I filed a 1040 as his personal representative using TTAX. And on the personal 1040 form is was marked *Deceased*
This is now year 2024 and I was just appointed as the offical admin and I open a EIN for the estate.
Based on reading the IRS form 1041 instructions the estate did not have any gross income of $600 or more in CY 2020 and CY2023.
Thus please concurr I have no need to file 1041.
However, the lawyer for the Probate is asking me the filing date of 1041...I think i will just give them the filing date of the personal 1040 and that 1041 is not required. This is part of the closing out the probate...
Please review the above if this is accurate and any addiortnal guidance that I should be made aware of...
Thanks in Advance...:-)
