Get your taxes done using TurboTax

It's really pretty simple.  If this is the final return of the estate or trust, and there are excess deductions on termination that are non-miscellaneous itemized deductions reported to you as a beneficiary, you may deduct the excess deductions shown in box 11, code B, on the applicable line of Schedule A (Form 1040).  Each excess deduction on termination of an estate or trust retains its separate character.  If your percentage of the non-miscellaneous deductions you listed is 50%, then you would have a $10 interest deduction, a $15 Tax deduction, and a $15 Tax on Investment Property deduction.  You enter these deductions in the Deductions & Credits section of TurboTax according to the nature of the deduction.
