Line 1
If you received an accumulation distribution as a beneficiary of a trust, you may be allowed an accumulation distribution credit for your share of:
New York State income taxes paid by the trust,* and
any income tax imposed on the trust by another state, political subdivision within that state, or District of Columbia on income sourced to the other jurisdiction.*
*These amounts should be provided to you by the trust.
However, this credit:
cannot be more than the percent of tax due determined by dividing the portion of the income taxable to the trust in the other jurisdiction and taxable to the beneficiary in New York by the beneficiary’s total New York Income, and
may not reduce your tax due to an amount less than would have been due if the accumulation distribution was excluded from your New York adjusted gross income.
