Get your taxes done using TurboTax
If a trust and not your mother's estate was the beneficiary of the IRA, your mother's estate is not involved. Since your brother as trustee of the trust, not the IRA custodian, sent you an amount equal to the RMD, it seems that the trust, not you, is the beneficiary of the IRA. Regardless, as NCperson said, enter the Schedule K-1 (Form 1041) as received. It's likely that box 5 shows the taxable amount of the RMD distribution (likely your entire RMD) which passes the tax liability for that through to you. TurboTax will include this amount on Schedule 1 line 5 and Form 1040 line 8 as income on your tax return.
If the Schedule K-1 shows an end date in 2021, this goes on your 2021 tax return. If it shows an end date in 2022, it goes on your 2022 tax return instead.
