Best Answer

The Administrator must be appointed by the court and then has the authority to settle the estate. By law, the Administrator has the right and obligation and authority to make 'major decisions'. In a large family it is important for the family to respect the authority of the Administrator. It is important for all the family members to work together to resolve disagreements. You will need to make fair minded decisions on how to distribute the property and everyone's ideas should be considered. However, the Administrator has the right to make the final decisions.

If a beneficiary to an estate becomes deceased and that beneficiary had a distribution in that year would the heirs of the now deceased beneficiary receive a K-1 and be taxed on that distribution?

If the distribution to the beneficiary was mandatory, and the trust agreement does not provide for alternative disposition on the beneficiary's death, and/or the trust agreement provides that the distribution is mandatory and not discretionary, then the distribution should be payable to the deceased beneficiary's estate, which could get the K-1 as to any portion of the distribution that constitutes income rather than principal.
