With Respect to Form 8879-F do any of the numbers on that form flow thru to an Individual Income tax Return Form 1040? Or does that form represent a separate entity?

    Separate.

     

    Form 8879-F may be used when filing a return for an Estate or Trust. 

    Form 1041 is used to report the income and tax of that Estate or Trust. 

    Form 8879-F is an additional form used by the tax preparer in order to e-file the 1041. 

     

    If amounts from the Estate or Trust are to be allocated to individuals, those amounts would be reported on Schedule K-1. 

    The Taxpayer who receives the Schedule K-1 uses that to report amounts on their individual 1040.
