The fiduciary’s instructions for completing Schedule K-1 are in the Instructions for Form 1041.  \nSection references are to the Internal Revenue Code unless otherwise noted.  \nFuture Developments  \nFor the latest information about developments related to Schedule K-1 (Form 1041) and its instructions, such as legislation enacted after they were published, [go to](go to IRS.gov/)[ ](go to IRS.gov/)[IRS.gov/](go to IRS.gov/)[ ](go to IRS.gov/)[Form1041](Form1041.)[.](Form1041.)  \nReminders  \nExcess deductions on termination. Under Final RegulationsTD9918 , each excess deduction on termination of an estate or trust retains its separate character as an amount allowed in arriving at adjusted gross income, a non-miscellaneous itemized deduction, or a miscellaneous itemized deduction.  \nSee Box 11, Code A Excess Deductions on Termination Section 67(e) Expenses and Box 11, Code B—Excess Deductions on Termination—Non-Miscellaneous Itemized Deductions, later, for more information.  \nBeneficiary's identification number. For your protection, Schedule K-1 may show only the last four digits of your identifying number (social security number (SSN), etc.) . However, the estate or trust has reported your complete identifying number to the IRS.  \nBackup withholding. If Schedule K-1 shows backup withholding in box 13, code B, attach a copy to your return.  \nGeneral Instructions  \nPurpose of Form  \nUse Schedule K-1 to report a beneficiary's share of the estate’sor trust’s income, credits, deductions, etc. , on your Form 1040 or 1040-SR. Keep it for your records. Don’t file it with your tax return, unless backup withholding was reported in box 13, code B.  \nInconsistent Treatment of Items  \nGenerally, you must report items shown on your Schedule K-1 (including attached schedules) the same way that the estate or trust treated the items on its return.  \nIf the treatment of an item on your original or amended return is inconsistent with the estate’s or trust’s treatment (or if the estate or trust was required to but hasn't filed a return), you must file Form 8082, Notice of Inconsistent Treatment or Administrative Adjustment Request (AAR), with your original or amended return to identify and explain any inconsistency (or to note that an estate or trust return hasn't been filed) .  \nIf you are required to file Form 8082 but fail to do so, you maybe subject to the accuracy-related penalty. This penalty is in addition to any tax that results from making your amount or  \ntreatment of the item consistent with that shown on the estate’sor trust’s return. Any deficiency that results from making the amounts consistent may be assessed immediately.  \nErrors  \nIf you believe the fiduciary has made an error on your Schedule K-1, notify the fiduciary and ask for an amended or a corrected Schedule K-1 . Don’t change any items on your copy. Be sure that the fiduciary sends a copy of the amended Schedule K-1 to the IRS. If you are unable to reach an agreement with the fiduciary regarding the inconsistency, you must file Form 8082.  \nIf you are the executor of an estate and you received adecedent's Schedule K-1 from an estate or trust in which the decedent had a beneficial interest, but the decedent died in a prior year, then you should request that the fiduciary send you a corrected Schedule K-1 to reflect the proper allocation of tax items under the will or the trust's governing instrument.  \nBeneficiaries of Generation-Skipping Trusts  \nIf you received Form 706-GS(D-1), Notification of Distribution From a Generation-Skipping Trust, and paid a  \ngeneration-skipping transfer (GST) tax on Form 706-GS(D),  \nGeneration-Skipping Transfer Tax Return for Distributions, you can deduct the GST tax paid on income distributions on Schedule A (Form 1040), line 6.
