Third party special needs trusts are generally either considered ?complex trusts? or ?qualified disability trusts? for income tax purposes and the trust itself is responsible for reporting its own items of income, deduction, and credit.
First-Party or Self-Funded Special Needs Trusts Any income earned on the funds invested in the first-party trust is always taxable to the beneficiary in the year it is earned, regardless of when or if it is distributed to the beneficiary.
Income retained by the trust will be taxed to the trust. Practically, with most smaller trusts, there's no real difference in the tax treatment of the two types of trusts, since they use all their annual income for the benefit of the individual with special needs.
