My German Aunt died and left me and 7 others in Germany and here in States, a small inheritance of $ in her verified German accounts. Per info request letter from German Finance Office I already had to prepay German Inheritance tax in Jan. 2019. No closure yet of this problem, no $ yet received to date. Is the 2019 prepaid tax and any other costs to finalize this event deductible on my 2019 tax, and possibly in 2020?
