How do you exclude income from a K-1 on a NYS tax return, which was already taxed and paid by the state the trust was formed in.

The trust was formed in Massachusetts but the client lives in New York. As mentioned above, the Trust paid the MA state tax, thus should be excluded from NYS. I believe this is correct and if so, how to exclude from income.

The trust paid MA income tax on the income passed through to the beneficiary?

Yes, that is what the client told me. Where are the input fields on the NYS return to exclude the income?

IF that is true, it would be shown on the K-1s somewhere. It doesn't sound right-unless the trust has business income. Then there might be a nonresident withholding requirement.
