 IT-394R2 Preferred Beneficiary Election
A preferred beneficiary under a trust for a trust's taxation year that ends after 1996 generally means an individual beneficiary who is eligible for a disability tax credit under subsection 118.3(1) or a beneficiary 18 years of age or older for whom a dependant tax credit under subsection 118(1) can be claimed by another individual.
Thus, the trust will not be able to pay all its income to a beneficiary, elect to have the income taxed in the trust under subsection 104(13.1), not claim the maximum amount as a deduction under subsection 104(6) and add the income to its accumulating income for the purpose of the preferred beneficiary election.
These changes also provided that the beneficiary's entitlement to the disability tax credit under subsection 118.3(1) is satisfied where the beneficiary is entitled to it for the beneficiary's taxation year that ends in the trust's taxation year (and not for the beneficiary's taxation year in which the trust's taxation year ends).

 In re Trust Estate of Theodore H. Hubbard
The superior court concluded that, although the farm operation had been greatly cut back in recent years and did not provide the life beneficiary with any income, the trust was still operative and explicitly precluded the trustee from selling, conveying, or otherwise disposing of any part of the trust property.
The life beneficiary appeals, arguing that (1) the trust does not preclude the trustee from granting easements on the trust property; and (2) the trustee acted within its discretion in approving the easements.
The trust does not allow the life beneficiary to encumber trust property, and thereby diminish the value of the trust estate, to benefit his non-trust property.

 FDIC: New Rules for Revocable Living Trust Accounts
Living trusts often give a beneficiary the right to receive income from the trust or to use trust assets during the beneficiary’s lifetime (known as a life estate interest).
Previously, many living trusts did not qualify for per-beneficiary coverage because they contained conditions that prevented a qualifying beneficiary from actually receiving his or her share of the trust assets when the owner died.
The beneficiary must become entitled to his or her interest in the trust when the owner dies -- coverage would be based on the beneficiaries who meet this requirement at the time the bank fails.

The trust may be revoked during the lifetime of the depositor by withdrawal of the funds or other affirmative acts, but if the depositor predeceases the beneficiary without revoking the trust, the beneficiary takes the balance of the funds at the time of the depositor's death without the funds passing through the depositor's estate.

 Proposed Regulations for Required Minimum Distributions
A significant number of commentators on the 1997 amendment to the proposed regulations requested clarification that a testamentary trust named as an employee's beneficiary is a trust that qualifies for the look-through rule to the underlying beneficiaries, as permitted in the 1997 proposed regulations.
These proposed regulations retain the provision in the proposed regulations, as amended in 1997, allowing an underlying beneficiary of a trust to be an employee's designated beneficiary for purposes of determining required minimum distributions when the trust is named as the beneficiary of a retirement plan or IRA, provided that certain requirements are met.
A designated beneficiary need not be specified by name in the plan or by the employee to the plan in order to be a designated beneficiary so long as the individual who is to be the beneficiary is identifiable under the plan as of the date the beneficiary is determined under A-4 of this section.

 The classification of express and non-express trusts
Where, on the other hand, an express trust is described as a discretionary trust, this means that a beneficiary only receives an interest in the trust property, or the income derived from that property, if the trustee exercises his or her discretion to make a distribution of that kind to the beneficiary.
In such a case the legal owner is said to hold the property on resulting trust (and therefore as trustee) for the transferor (who is therefore the beneficiary of the trust).
Where an express trust is described as a fixed trust, this means that it creates a fixed (and therefore proprietary) interest in the trust property, or in the income derived from that property, in each beneficiary.

A Beneficiary Deed follows the same reasoning as a Living Trust— the asset avoids probate because it is not considered part of the deceased owner’s estate.
