Does a trustee of a discretionary trust have to reveal the amount of the trust fund to a discretionary beneficiary?
A beneficiary of a trust has the right to an accounting as a way to make certain the trust assets are not being wasted or mishandled by the trustee. A trustee does not have the right to operate in secret. A court can order an accounting.
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. The distribution to the deceased beneficiary's estate could flow through to the heirs of the deceased beneficiary's estate.
What if the property is in a trust and I am the beneficiary of that trust?
Under UK Law: The trustee's must authorise the release of the property to the beneficiary(s) The beneficiaries under certain trust law can demand the property of the trust, but the trust deed must state a legal 'absolute' entitlement to that property. If the beneficiary has an absolute right to that property and has attained the stated age at which he or she should receive that property then the trustee's must authorise the payment to the beneficiary. IF it is a discretionary trust then you are only a 'potential' beneficiary and have no legal right to demand the property
