The trustee of a trust issues Schedule K-1 to report a beneficiary's share of the trust's income, credits, deductions, etc. on the beneficiary's Form 1040. (The Executor or Personal Representative of a decedent's estate also issues Schedules K-1 to report distributions from the estate.)

The trustee (or one of the joint trustees) must file Form 1041 for a domestic trust taxable under section 641 that has:

1. Any taxable income for the tax

year,

2. Gross income of $600 or more (regardless of taxable income), or

3. A beneficiary who is a nonresident alien.

There are different rules for (1) Grantor type trusts, (2) Qualified subchapter s trusts (that own a business entity taxed as an s corporation), (3) qualified personal residence trusts, and certain other trusts and arrangements discussed in more detail on the IRS's instructions to Form 1041.

Some of the special rules relating to taxation of trusts follow.

Two or more trusts are treated as one trust if the trusts have substantially the same grantor(s) and substantially the same primary beneficiary(ies) and a principal purpose of such trusts is avoidance of tax. This provision applies only to that portion of the trust that is attributable to contributions to corpus made after March 1, 1984.

A trust is a domestic trust if: A U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust (court test), and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust (control test). See Regulations section 301.7701-7 for more information on the court and control tests.

Also treated as a domestic trust is a trust (other than a trust treated as wholly owned by the grantor) that:

  • Was in existence on August 20, 1996,
  • Was treated as a domestic trust on August 19, 1996, and
  • Elected to continue to be treated as a domestic trust.

A trust that is not a domestic trust is treated as a foreign trust. If you are the trustee of a foreign trust, file Form 1040NR instead of Form 1041. Also, a foreign trust with a U.S. owner generally must file Form 3520-A, Annual Information Return of Foreign Trust With a U.S. Owner.

If a domestic trust becomes a foreign trust, it is treated under section 684 as having transferred all of its assets to a foreign trust, except to the extent a grantor or another person is treated as the owner of the trust when the trust becomes a foreign trust.

Are their different types of IRS form K1?

Yes, there is more than one, like fire department ones.


Where does the K1 IRS form come from?

The K-1 IRS form, specifically Form 1065, Schedule K-1, is issued by partnerships to report each partner's share of the partnership's income, deductions, and credits. It is part of the partnership's tax return and is used to inform partners of their individual tax responsibilities. Each partner receives a K-1, which they then use to report their share of income on their personal tax returns. The form helps ensure that income is accurately reported and taxed at the individual level.


What is due date for US tax returns filing?

For the 1040 individual income tax return April 15, 2010 with an extension October 15 2010.

When renting can a k1 form be used as proof of tax return substituting a w2?

Yes, it ia actually more through and informative. its very precise for the taxes are paid in advance . I guess the above is from a fool who wants to prove it to all! A K-1 or 1065 are the forms used for partnerships to report to both the IRS and their partners, the tax positions and income to be passed through. (A partnership is a see through entity and not taxable). Only the landlord can decide what tax forms, or financial material in general is acceptable to him. (It would seem that if he was renting to the Partnership, a K-1 would be appropriate. If he was renting to an individual (even one of the partners) it would not. It would NOT be a partners individual return, just one of many forms more like 1099s that would be included in it).


Where on a personal tax return does s deduction for depletion get claimed?

Well, it would be sort of complex, generally part of a Schedule C calulation, but maybe elsewhere if the allied income is coming on a K1 or 1065. You would most likely want to align it to the income it reduces. And it depends if it oil & gas or timber. All exhaustible natural deposits and timber qualify for deduction of a reasonable allowance for depletion based on the taxpayer's cost or other basis of the resources—cost depletion. For mines and certain interests in oil or gas wells, the depletion deductions may be computed as a specified percentage of gross income if that is greater than cost depletion. A taxpayer can claim percentage depletion on one property and cost depletion on another, or claim, on the same property, cost depletion for one year and percentage for another. Where the property is entitled to either cost or percentage depletion, the allowable deduction is the greater of the two. (Code Sec. 613) Percentage depletion for oil and gas wells (except for gas from certain domestic geothermal deposits or geopressured brine) is limited to “independent producers and royalty owners,”. The allowable deduction is never less than cost depletion. (Code Sec. 611, Code Sec. 612, Code Sec. 613) There's no official form for computing depletion, but Form T must be attached to the income tax return if a deduction for depletion of timber is taken. The basis of the property must be reduced by the depletion deduction allowed or allowable, whichever is larger. A taxpayer may take a depletion deduction only if he owns an “economic interest” in the mineral deposit or the timber. Owners of an economic interest include: (1) owner-operators; (2) lessors and lessees, even where the lessee has an economic interest under a lease terminable without cause on short notice; (3) owner of a royalty interest, or retained net profits interest; and (4) owners of a production payment to the extent it isn't treated as a mortgage loan. (Reg § 1.611-1(b))
