Trust dissolution and disbursement

[Chapmlg509m3]

I am the trustee for a revocable living trust. The last tangible assets has been sold and we wish to disburse all funds. 1. What IRS forms, if any, do we need to file for the sale of personal property (82K)? 2. What forms need to be filed for each of the beneficiaries? The estimated share for each is approx 16K.

Hi, @Chapmlg509m3 , thanks for the question! But unfortunately, I am not allowed to advise specifically on issues relating to trusts, my apologies! I can only state in general that capital gains or losses from a revocable trust are normally reported on the grantor's personal tax return. Additionally, beneficiaries may need to report capital gains on their personal returns if they received distributions that created such. I hope this is helpful!
