Lacerte's instructions for how to do this are outdated.  It needs to happen on screen 43, either under Other Information Line 14 or Line 13 (backup withholding) --  and NOT screen 7.  I called and spoke with an agent who gave me incorrect info.  I had to figure this out myself.  Unfortunately, the client withheld inside the trust (not my advice) and I need to push it out to the single beneficiary somehow.

Federal withholding?

It's not supposed to pass through.

The more I know the more I don’t know.
