Trust and Estate Investment Management Fees

Estates and trusts are subject to the 2% AGI limitation on miscellaneous itemized deductions. Miscellaneous itemized deductions for an estate or trust are generally the same kinds of expenses as those incurred by individuals (final Form 1040 tax preparation fees, investment expenses, etc.). However, under IRC §67(e), expenses connected with the administration of an estate or trust which would not have been incurred if the property were not held in such trust or estate are allowed as a deduction in arriving at adjusted gross income and are not subject to the 2% AGI limitation.
