Estate tax using Turbo Tax Business
I am the fiduciary on my mothers estate. I am filling for 2021 and using TurboTax Business 1041. The Federal taxes seemed straight forward, however, I live in Illinois (this is where I have the estate address). My mother is from Minnesota and has income from Minnesota (1099 R only <$19K) and Pennsylvania (Royalties on oil leases <$800). Only 2 states showed up in TurboTax Business (1 for Illinois and 1 for Penn., nothing for Minnesota). Going through the state taxes, its not clear if I have to file any other forms for each state. Illinois says I owe ~$500 in taxes which seem odd for the little income that was received in Minnesota. Penn. does not show any taxes required. Question:
1. Should I have to file a MN return if the decedent was from MN and I as the fiduciary live in IL where I set up the estate accounts?
2. Should I even have to file an Illinois return since all of the income was actually earned in MN? Does owing $500 to Illinois in state tax even make sense when total income was less than $20K?
3. Do I have to complete other forms for each state when the income is only that listed above?
Thanks
