Mom passed away in 2022 and I am a court-appointed executor. Mom's estate tax return has already been filed. We received an additional 1099 interest of approximately $7800 which was earned in 2024. How do I file and what form should I file?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
It depends. All beneficiaries would include this on their individual tax return for 2024. If you are the only beneficiary, then you would file and include this 1099-INT on your tax return using the steps in the link below.
If there are other beneficiaries and you need to disburse some of the income to them you can use the information below to do that.
Nominee Returns. This is how the IRS knows what you are doing.
Generally, if you receive a Form 1099 for amounts that actually belong to another person or entity, you are considered a nominee recipient. You must file a Form 1099 with the IRS (the same type of Form 1099 you received). You must also furnish a Form 1099 to each of the other owners.
File the new Form 1099 with Form 1096 (this is a transmittal for the 1099) by mailing to the Internal Revenue Service Center for your area. (Provided on the Form 1096)
The forms filed with the IRS should be the red copy (use the form(s) needed) so if you don't have a color printer, go to the IRS website to fill in and print the forms here: :
