Inheritance & Estate
“I'm the executor of an estate, what forms am I supposed to file?”
As executor of an estate, the filing picture often depends on the estate’s assets, whether income was earned after death, and how property was titled before transfer. In many cases, there may be final individual income tax returns, estate income tax returns, and possibly information returns tied to beneficiaries or asset sales. The exact forms can also vary with state requirements, the size and type of the estate, and whether any trusts are involved. Records of dates of death, account statements, and beneficiary designations often help determine which filings apply. Working through the specifics with a CPA is the cleanest way to land on the right move.
