The recipient reports the item in the year it is received and it keeps the same character it would have had for the decedent (Pub 559).
Question 3 Hard

Solution
Form 8960 figures net investment income tax. An individual carries the resulting tax to Schedule 2 (Form 1040). See Publication 550, chapter 1, and the Instructions for Form 8960, Purpose of Form and line 17.
