Deductions & credits

There are different types of SNTs. Is the trust a QDT (QisT), for example?

 

Generally, meaning almost always, medical expenses are not deductible on Form 1041, but a QDisT does get a much higher exemption than other nongrantor trusts ($4,700 for 2023). In most all events, any income the trust generates would be taxable for the child (typically a huge advantage).

 

You really should seek guidance from a local tax professional for this matter.
