Sections 6011 & 6012 of the
Internal Revenue Code (IRC) require entities to prepare and file
estate and trust income tax returns. These forms and related
schedules are used by estate and trust to report income and other
compensation subject to tax as well as to report and disclosure
taxes paid. Treasury Regulations section 1.6011-1 explains that
every person subject to any tax, or required to collect any tax,
under Subtitle A of the Code, shall make such returns or statements
as are required by the regulations. The return or statement shall
include therein the information required by the applicable
regulations or forms. Section 1.6012-3 explains the general
guidelines for estates and trusts required to make returns of
income.

The burden estimation
methodology for trust and estate tax is being transitioned from the
legacy Arthur D. Little (ADL) methodology to the IRS Taxpayer
Burden Model. The changes discussed above result in a burden hour
estimate of 31,900,000 hours, a decrease in total estimated time
burden of 364,570,339 hours. The newly reported total out-of-pocket
costs is $5,501,000,000 and total monetized burden is
$7,573,000,000. The change related to the transition of the burden
estimate from the legacy Arthur D. Little Model methodology to the
RAAS Taxpayer Burden Model, is a one-time change. In addition,
changes are being made to the form to be current with enacted
legislation.
