I have a client that made two large charitable donations.  One was the proceeds from the sale of a home that was in the trust and the other was actually a home donated.  My question is when I enter the value of the donations to the two recipients it triggers AMT  on the K-1 (Box 12 A & J)  for the beneficiaries, causing them to have very large taxes owed on their personal returns.  Is this correct?  If not how do I correct it?  If it is correct how do I explain to the Beneficiaries that they owe the tax for the Trust's Charitable Donations?
