That says the trust is exempt.
It does not say that a beneficiary is exempt on the income shown on their K-1.
The more I know the more I don’t know.

Yes that says that a charitable remainder trust is exempt from NIIT. It does not say that the beneficiary's K-1 income isxempt.

True. After review of the IRS code section regarding this issue I can find no evidence to suggest income to beneficiaries would be tax exempt. Thank you for your input, Oola
