RESP income, who reports it on US tax return?

Post by Marina »

Does the parent report the Canadian RESP income on their US tax return or the beneficiary who is their daughter? Thanks.

Is the trustee the financial management company? I'm working on form 3520-A.

The parent.

Yes, the trustee is the firm.
After 20 years, I am severely cutting back on responses. Do not ask specifically for my help. There are a few others on this board that can answer most questions. All the best
