Charitable Remainder Unitrust Required Distribution

codeblue123
Level 3

Client setup a Charitable Remainder Unitrust and paid out distributions that were less than the required distributions for the year.  They used 6% all year instead of 7% per agreement documents.  Should they distribute out more this year to get these distributions caught up to 7% for the prior year?

A CRUT can make its required annual payments within a reasonable time after year-end. According to the regs., the time up to the extended due date of the CRUT’s tax return  is reasonable. See Reg. §1.664-3 for details.

What if it was missed in the prior year?  I imagine it's best to pay it out late rather than not at all..

Also, If it's paid after the tax year, is it best to show it as a liability versus not?
