Estate from 1041 - distribution question
Following Turbotax step-by-step for from 1041 under "Distributions" we are asked to enter the the "amount distributed to each beneficiary ". Researching a previously answered question about this in this forum*, this should be the amount of INCOME distributed to each beneficiary and not the total distributed to each from the estate. (Please correct me if I am wrong on that)
If this is correct, I am not sure what to enter here since the estate has a negative total income (line 9, form 1041, "Total Income") as the capital losses exceeded the income.
Do I enter a negative number or zero or something else here?
