Minnesota Form KF - Beneficiary's Share of Minnesota Taxable Income

Form KF is used by fiduciaries (such as estates, trusts, or nonresident individuals) to report the beneficiary’s share of Minnesota taxable income. This form is essential for beneficiaries who receive income from a Minnesota-sourced estate or trust and may have adjustments to their income or credits.

Who Must File Form KF?

  • Each estate, trust, or nonresident individual beneficiary with Minnesota source income.
  • Any Minnesota beneficiary who has adjustments to income or credits.

Key Sections of Form KF

  • Line 49 - Minnesota Source Gross Income: Determines whether a Minnesota return is required.
  • Line 50 - Minnesota Source Distributive Income: This is the amount ultimately taxed and must be reported on the beneficiary’s state tax return.
  • Tax Year Information: Must include the beginning and ending dates of the tax year.
  • Beneficiary Information: Includes Social Security Number, name, and tax ID numbers for both the beneficiary and the estate/trust.

How to Use Form KF

Fiduciaries must complete Form KF and provide it to each affected beneficiary. The form helps beneficiaries accurately report their share of Minnesota taxable income when filing their own state tax return.

Important Notes

  • Form KF is part of the Minnesota fiduciary tax reporting system and is used in conjunction with other forms like Schedule KPI and Schedule KS.
  • Beneficiaries should refer to Line 50 (Minnesota Source Distributive Income) when completing their own Minnesota state tax return.
