you sound defensive to me and i certainly hope i didn't offend you or imply You made a mistake. i am just saying that i believe the correct handling of this is that the son should only pay the interest accrued during the time he held the bonds, you could be a hero and amend the prior returns if you agree with me.
just to be sure i am getting a hair cut later and will double check with my barber.
BUT THE step up in basis includes the accrued interest even if no 7060 is needed thus i wuld not take that interest on the sons return. i have never had that questioned on a return here but granted i also usually prepare the 706 even if non-taxable just for this type of situation.
lets see, part of the bond interest should have been accrued on the 706 so that part could be excluded on his personal return. he shuld only pay tax on the interest accrued since dod so 1/2 right 1/2 wrong
it-360 change of residency forms too as wellas any other applicable attachments, ie child care credit, long term care credit etc.. be careful as to where they worked and when to get the correct income in the correct states and don't for get moving credit on federal.
my theory is enter it as per atx input screen, code it as a ptp and let the program do its thing, if you [or i] can't figure it out, then those working for the irs can't either. and usually the amounts are very small anyway.
the aicpa and nccpap both came out with a position letter to the irs asking that the extended due date of partnerships be changed to 9/15 to allow timely filing of 1040's.
YEAH!!!
Last year we were still receiving k-1's on 10/13 which flowed into entities that we then had to prepare and send out our k-1's do do itr's. we probably did 50 returns those last 2 days and they are always the biggest, multistate, multimillion returns
