Trust

[radonnad]

Mom died last year and she had a trust with cash and annuities do I claim all money distributed to beneficiaries or just what annuities 1099-r?

Are you using TurboTax Business to prepare a 1041 for the trust?

[radonnad]

Yes

Then trust has only cash and received a 1099-R (or multiple 1099-Rs)?

What boxes have amounts on the 1099-R(s)?

[radonnad]

I received two 1099-R's and Boxes 1, 2a and 4. Have a D4 in box 7

Am I to presume the beneficiary was the trust? 

If so, you need to enter the information from each 1099-R into the program.

Enter Forms Mode and refer to the screenshot to enter the figure in Box 4.

For the taxable amount in Box 2a, follow the screenshots below.

[radonnad]

Ok I did that and I have an amount on that line. I have to enter all the beneficiaries and what they received does that include all monies or just what is on the 1099-R?

Enter just the amounts (the taxable income) on the 1099-Rs (and any other income accruing to the trust).

You do not need to show any corpus (aka principal - cash in this case) that is being distributed on the K-1s.

[radonnad]

Turbo-tax generates the K1's right? The form 1041 wants me to input all distributed funds for each beneficiary, does that mean total inheritance. There was one annuity that the beneficiary was her estate (not in the trust) funds were not distributed until 2022 does that also need to be included?

You can input the funds distributed.

Distributions of corpus will not have an impact on the return nor will those distributions appear on the K-1(s).

About this 1099-R, who was named as the recipient on the form? Was the estate actually named?

For distributions after the close of the tax year (for the trust), you can make a Section 663(b) election to have the distribution treated as if it was made in the preceding tax year (2021). The distribution must be made within 65 days of the close of the tax year.

Hi,

The recipient of the annuity was my mom not the trust.

Except the estate received the income, did it not? There was no named individual beneficiary on the account?
