Christian Posted February 20, 2020 Report Posted February 20, 2020 A client died on May 3rd last year. Her final return will have prior to death info. Her post death inome will fall on her Form 1041. Her daughter bought a cd some time just prior to her passing on. The cds were redemed at cost in August of last year. The bank sent a check for interest showing her social security number instead of her estate ein basically stating the interest accrued prior to her death with the check coming in November of last year. On the reporting statement it indicates she is deceased. Having run ino this many years back I believe I showed the interest on her final Schedule B but somehow indicated it as being subtracted out stating it was reported on her Form 1041. Of course, I have since forgotten just how this was done. Can anyone provide any information on this? Quote
Lion EA Posted February 20, 2020 Report Posted February 20, 2020 Exactly. Enter it on B. Then on the next line put a description something like "Reported on Form 1041, Name, EIN" and put a negative number for the amount received after DOD (cash basis taxpayer). Quote
