Thank you for joining us today.

Description

Understanding fiduciary income taxation – the taxation of grantor and non-grantor trusts, complex and simple trusts – is essential to trust planning. It impacts the type of trust chosen, how it's structured and administered.

Recently changes to federal tax law have added to the complexity of fiduciary income taxation. The tax treatment of trust income and accounting for distributions and expenses varies depending on the type of trust involved and how "Distributable Net Income" is allocated.

This program provides a real-world guide to the essential rules, timeframes, planning techniques and traps of the taxation of trusts.

Part 2 topics include:

Practical income allocation for simple, complex and grantor trusts
Specific allocation rules for DNI – Tier System, Separate Share Rule, 65 Day Rule, specific bequests
Charitable giving – tax treatment and practical impact
Treatment of depreciation, administrative expenses, and allocation to income
Trust terminations – capital loss carryover and excess deductions
