Grantor Irrevocable Trust 1041 : Informational Form

I have a Grantor Irrevocable Trust.  The trust has an EIN number.  As I understand, any dividends/interest as reported from the grantor trust letter (1099) can be reported on the 1040 personal tax form.  There were no beneficiary distributions - hence no schedule K-1 required.    Should I still submit a 1041 indicating it is a grantor trust?  Does Turbo Tax Business support the grantor trust - And does Turbo Business provide an "informational" statement linking grantor information back to personal 1040 form?

TurboTax Business supports grantor trusts and will generate a grantor information letter (GIS). 

 

However, certain grantor trusts can generally use one of the optional methods of filing:
