David Posted September 25, 2008 Report Posted September 25, 2008 I am preparing a final tax return for a decedent and a 1041 for the estate. I have some 1099-INTs, 1099-DIVs, 1099-Bs and 1099-Rs that should have the decedent's ssn but were issued to the estate's tax ID # and vice-versa. So I am trying to separate the income based on receipt prior to DOD to the TP and receipt after DOD to the estate. If the 1099-B is issued to the TPs ssn but most of the transactions occured after the DOD, I think I have to record the complete 1099-B on the final tax return so the information will match the 1099-B filed with the IRS. I then need to pull out the amount that should be recorded to the estate's tax return. Where in the ATX software do I reduce the amount that should be recorded on the estate's tax return? When I prepare the estate tax return, where do I indicate the portion of the 1099Bs, DIVs, Rs, etc. that were issued with the TP's ssn but should be recorded on the estate's tax return? Thanks. Quote
OldJack Posted September 25, 2008 Report Posted September 25, 2008 Enter the 1099 as normal, then enter a new line 1099 with estate ID# and negative amount for what goes to the estate. Quote
