1099-R issued to Estate after Final 1041 has been filed

 A final 1041 was filed for the 2022 tax year for an Estate.  In 2024, an additional (sizable) asset was located and a 1099-R was issued to the Estate EIN for 2024.  Over $24,000 of federal income tax was withheld from the distribution.  Can a 1041 be filed for 2024 to report the income and claim the refund even though a "final" 1041 was filed for the 2022 tax year?

    What makes you think there will be a refund?  Was the asset distributed in 2024?  Make sure the beneficiaries know to expect a K-1.

    Yes - all assets/income was distributed and the beneficiaries know a K-1 is coming.
