My sister died. I handled her estate. Can these costs be deducted? Lawyer, travel, etc

[MichaelL1]

Are you asking from her Estate 1041 return?  or from your fees as Executor when you report your income?

[Opus 17 · Accepted solution]

The costs can't be deducted from your income on your personal tax return.  They should have been deducted from the estate before the proceeds were distributed.
