Complex Trusts and 'National Certified Trust Consultant'?  Reply with quote  

Does anyone here know about Complex Trusts? That is an option on the 1041.

A friend sent me a DVD of a company that sets your business up properly to be classed as a Complex Trust, with full disclosure to the IRS.

I can find virtually nothing on this online.

The man on the video is "one of seven" National Certified Trust Consultants.

Searching around, I do not find his company. I did find mention of 2 others with that title.

Does anyone know who would certifiy them?

They are involved with business comebacks and restructuring.

Thanks! Smile

You are right, the online info is limited.

I found a definition...


quote:

Simple and Complex Trusts: Trusts are either simple or complex.

• Simple Trust: Trust that is required to distribute all accounting income in the year earned; has no charitable beneficiaries; and does not distribute principal in the current year.

Complex Trust: Trust that is allowed to accumulate income, has a charitable beneficiary, or distributes principal.

Note: A trust may be simple one year and complex the next. A trust that is permitted but not required to distribute principal is a complex trust in years when principal is actually distributed, but may be a simple trust in a year when no distributions are made. A trust which can either distribute or accumulate income is always a complex trust even in years when all income is distributed. All trusts are complex in their final year because all principal must be distributed when the trust terminates.
