The IRS hasn't provided guidance on how a cancelation of debt (Form 1099-C) should be reported on a fiduciary return. For further assistance, contact the IRS or refer to About Form 1099-C, Cancelation of Debt.

If the IRS suggests reporting the amount on Line 8, Other Income:

  1. Go to Screen 20, Other Income.
