Do I need to file taxes for my revocable living trust?
During your lifetime, a revocable living trust typically doesn't require separate tax filings. You report all trust income and expenses on your personal tax return using your Social Security number. However, after you pass away, the trust becomes irrevocable and will need its own tax identification number (EIN) and must file annual tax returns. The successor trustee becomes responsible for meeting all tax compliance requirements and deadlines.
