Tom, your thinking is consistent with mine. The way the client's son was explaining it to me, the NJ lawyer was having an issue with putting it on her personal return Sch E. I wanted to check to see if I was missing something. In hindsight, the son may have misunderstood the difference between revocable and irrevocable. Thank you for your response.

Tom, the will states everything goes to revocable living trust through a rest, residual and remainder clause. Note the NJ property is actual a rental property. The trust document states son gets NJ Rental Property and daughter gets Florida home. The son and NJ lawyer were skeptical about titling the NJ Rental Property in the Trust as NJ is very easy to probate. Any concerns with or without retitling the property to the Trust? No real value associated with personal property. Agree with the IRAs and bank accounts, as most are joint accounts with the son paying all of the mother's bills, it was suggested to move one account into the Trust. Thank you for your response.

Client Mother lives in Florida, Client Son lives in NJ. Daughter lives in Florida and is not a client. Mother and Son created will and revocable trust to place her house in Florida (has mortgage) per daughter's wishes. Client son just read me the will and some of the trust documents. Both being dropped off today. Will states everything should go to the Trust. Son's NJ lawyer is questioning whether a NJ rental property (has mortgage) should be placed in the trust as well as the small bank accounts and small IRAs. All accounts have beneficiaries and or TOD/POD designations. House in Florida is in the Trust already. Do not know if the lawyer requested an EIN. Son will get NJ property and one Ira and Bank account. Daughter will get Florida house and one Ira and Bank Account. Son and NJ lawyer are questioning funding the remaining items to the Trust including the NJ rental property. The daughter was concerned with the Florida probate rules. Any ideas on how to address?

Thank you. I have passive selected. I may try duplicating a return in 2023 to see if it is isolated to 2022 ATX.

In this estate there are dividends with foreign taxes withheld and stock sold at a loss. There will be a net loss to the estate. Using 2022 ATX as it is a fiscal year. Received a red error message: Form 1116 Schedule B must be attached as a PDF; create the PDF, then from the E-File menu select Attach PDF. Schedule B looks to be correct and has the correct carryforward into the following year. Any ideas as to why this error message?

See attached link below the requirement is more than one-half of the cost of maintaining the household https://www.irs.gov/faqs/filing-requirements-status-dependents/filing-status Second FAQ: Question: If the parents of a year-old child never married but live together with the child for the tax year, and both contribute to the cost of maintaining the household for the child and themselves, may they both file as head of household? Answer: No, only one parent may claim the child as a qualifying child to file as head of household. To file as head of household you must furnish over one-half of the cost of maintaining the household for you and a qualifying person. Therefore, only one of the parents will have contributed more than one-half of the cost of maintaining the household and be eligible to file as head of household. If a child is a qualifying child of both parents, there is a tiebreaker rule to determine which parent may claim the child. See Publication 501, Dependents, Standard Deduction and Filing Information for more information.

Read section 1.121-1(b)2: (b) Residence—(1) In general. Whether property is used by the taxpayer as the taxpayer's residence depends upon all the facts and circumstances. A property used by the taxpayer as the taxpayer's residence may include a houseboat, a house trailer, or the house or apartment that the taxpayer is entitled to occupy as a tenant-stockholder in a cooperative housing corporation (as those terms are defined in section 216(b)(1) and (2)). Property used by the taxpayer as the taxpayer's residence does not include personal property that is not a fixture under local law. (2) Principal residence. In the case of a taxpayer using more than one property as a residence, whether property is used by the taxpayer as the taxpayer's principal residence depends upon all the facts and circumstances. If a taxpayer alternates between 2 properties, using each as a residence for successive periods of time, the property that the taxpayer uses a majority of the time during the year ordinarily will be considered the taxpayer's principal residence. In addition to the taxpayer's use of the property, relevant factors in determining a taxpayer's principal residence, include, but are not limited to— (i) The taxpayer's place of employment; (ii) The principal place of abode of the taxpayer's family members; (iii) The address listed on the taxpayer's federal and state tax returns, driver's license, automobile registration, and voter registration card; (iv) The taxpayer's mailing address for bills and correspondence; (v) The location of the taxpayer's banks; and (vi) The location of religious organizations and recreational clubs with which the taxpayer is affiliated.

From the IRS website: https://www.irs.gov/help/irs-document-upload-tool Under more info, it seems like it is only for a few forms. Also, there is a video link for instructions.

You do not report an amount like you do on a NJ-1040X. You need to take the corrected return less the previously filed return to come up with the new amount due. My guess is that NJ will add the two payments together which will equal the corrected return.

Tom, I believe you have to paper file, as you need to send in all the supporting documents, even for items not being amended. I believe when you amend the NJ 1040NR it show the total that should be paid or refunded as if the amended return was the correct return. You may need to net the two returns together to get the correct payment or refund amount.

Tom, see instructions on the bottom of page 33 of the NJ 1040 NR instructions. Use the 1040 NR and check Amended on the top of the return. https://www.state.nj.us/treasury/taxation/pdf/current/1040nri.pdf
