Estate Basis Reporting Requirement Deadline - June 30, 2016
In accordance with legislation passed in 2015, estate executors may now be required to implement additional IRS reporting requirements related to property distributed from an estate to its beneficiaries.
The new reporting requirement ensures consistency between the fair market value of property (FMV) reported on an estate tax return and the corresponding tax basis of that property used by beneficiaries in reporting gains and losses on their income tax returns.
