In the United States, we have two types of taxes as they relate to deathForm 706, often referred to as an estate tax return, and Form 1041, an income tax return for estates and trusts. These two forms serve different purposes and both, one, or neither may need to be filed when someone passes away.
If the estate generates more than $600 in annual gross income, you are required to file Form 1041, U.S. Income Tax Return for Estates and Trusts. An estate may also need to pay quarterly estimated taxes. See Form 1041 instructions for information on when to file quarterly estimated taxes.
An estate tax return (Form 706) must be filed if the gross estate of the decedent (who is a U.S. citizen or resident), increased by the decedents adjusted taxable gifts and specific gift tax exemption, is valued at more than the filing threshold for the year of the decedents death, as shown in the table below.
For 2016, the estate and gift tax exemption is $5.45 million per individual, up from $5.43 million in 2015. That means an individual can leave $5.45 million to heirs and pay no federal estate or gift tax. A married couple will be able to shield $10.9 million from federal estate and gift taxes.
What is a Schedule K-1 Form 1041: Estates and Trusts? If youre the beneficiary of a trust or estate, you might receive a Schedule K-1. The Schedule K-1 tax form is for inheritance recipients who need to report their share of income, deductions, or credits from the trust or estate.

Form 706 ensures that estate taxes are adequately assessed for larger estates, while Form 1041 helps report the estates income during the settlement process. By understanding these differences, executors and administrators can better manage estate obligations.
In practice, only a small fraction of U.S. estates is taxable, reflecting that exemption levels are high and transfers to surviving spouses are entirely excluded from taxable estates; but those estates that are subject to federal taxation typically face high rates.
