Charitable bequests are a cornerstone of many estate plans, yet improper drafting or reporting can significantly reduce the intended tax benefits or create compliance risk. This course guides tax and accounting professionals through the complex rules governing charitable bequests reported on the federal estate tax return (Form 706) and the fiduciary income tax return (Form 1041). Participants will examine how specific bequests, property transfers, and residuary charitable interests are treated for estate and income tax purposes.

The course addresses percentage‑based charitable residuary bequests, circular calculations on Form 706, and the requirements for claiming charitable income tax deductions on Form 1041. Emphasis is placed on common reporting pitfalls, coordination with governing documents, and best practices for maximizing charitable deductions while remaining compliant with IRS rules.
