One brother asked us to get their share because he was on Medicaid and hospice, dying of cancer.  If he got his share, the medicare would have stopped and he wanted his wife to have some money for burial and other expenses related to his death.  So, we sent him his money % to his wife after he passed away.  But we are stuck with claiming the extra amount that we really didn't get.  We got $129,310.  We sent the widow of our brother $19,000.00.  But on 1099-s it was the $129,310 that was filed.  Now we owe over $4k.  If we cleaned the $110,310, our amount owed to the government was around $300.00.  Is there anything we can do?
