Tax is assessed on a QTIP trust upon the death of the second spouse. If the total estate of the second spouse (including the QTIP trust) does not exceed the exemption amount in effect at the time, then no tax will be paid. To the extent that the addition of the QTIP to the second spouse's estate causes tax liability, that liability should be paid by the beneficiaries of the QTIP trust.

Are trust distributions taxable to the beneficiary?
Trust and Estate Income Distribution Deduction Taxable income earned by a trust or estate is taxable either to the trust or estate or to its beneficiaries but not to both. The trust or estate is allowed an income distribution deduction for income taxed to the beneficiaries. Beneficiaries receive Schedule K-1 informing them of the amount and types of income to include on their individual tax returns. Income passed through to the beneficiaries retains its original character (interest, dividends, capital gains, etc.). The income distribution deduction is the LESSER of: • Distributions less tax-exempt income included in distribution, or • Distributable net income less tax-exempt interest.

Does a Qualified terminable interst property trust qualify for a marital deduction?
A QTIP trust (a.k.a. C trust), which is typically created at the death of the first spouse to die, grants the surviving spouse a lifetime right to the income of the trust (at least annually) while transfering the remainder interest to individual(s) of the grantor's choosing. This qualifies for the unlimited marital deduction even though the spouse does not receive outright access to the assets in the trust. Even though this IS a terminable interest (usually disqualifying the marital deduction), the QTIP will qualify for the unlimted marital deduction since the surviving spouse will be required to include, in his/her gross estate, the fair market value, at the surviving spouse's date of death, the assets of the trust. The assets are taxed later in the surviving spouse's gross estate, but they will pass to the beneficiary of the trust, chosen by the first-to-die-spouse, at the surviving spouse's death.
