Bank accounts, retirement accounts, and life insurance will automatically transfer an inheritance if beneficiaries are designated. Listing beneficiaries on these accounts can be the easiest and quickest way to transfer those assets outside probate court.
Once the executor of the estate has divided up the assets and distributed them to the beneficiaries, the inheritance tax can come into play. The amount of tax is calculated separately for each individual beneficiary, and the beneficiary has to pay the tax.
Report income distributions to beneficiaries and to the IRS on Schedule K-1 (Form 1041). For calendar year estates and trusts, file Form 1041 and Schedule(s) K-1 on or before April 15 of the following year.
The grantor can opt to have the beneficiaries receive trust property directly without any restrictions. The trustee can write the beneficiary a check, give them cash, and transfer real estate by drawing up a new deed or selling the house and giving them the proceeds.
An executor cannot change beneficiaries' inheritances or withhold their inheritances unless the will has expressly granted them the authority to do so. The executor also cannot stray from the terms of the will or their fiduciary duty.
