Question about the name of a Trust on Form 1041
I am the trustee of my late father’s Trust. He died in September 2024. When my father died his Trust lawyer requested a Federal Tax ID number. Pretending my father’s name was John Doe, the name of the on the request for Tax ID was “THE JOHN DOE TR dated 01-10-2010”. When I filled out the 1041 for the 2024 Tax Year, which was the Initial tax return, I used “The John Doe Trust” as the name without the date. Is this going to cause a problem since I left out “dated 01-01-2010”? Since I realized that the date was left off on the 1041 for Tax Year 1024, on the 1041 form for the Tax Year 2025 should I include “dated 01-10-2010”? Will this cause further confusion for the IRS or does this not matter? Thanks!
