Part 11l-:A Since last year was the first time 1 had served as a co-executor of a family estate, 1 was not aware until preparing my 2011 Financial Disclosure Report

thata Co-Executor Fee was subject to the 15% income limitation Of $26,955.00. As a result of my authorized teaching compensation, I carned $26,000.00 in

2011 for teaching, leaving $955.00 as the balance for my income limitation. I received $9,996.48 as my Co-Exccutor Fee in 2011, which can be allocated over

the years when I did estate work, which includes 2012. (Compendium Secion 33.1(a-1). 1 thus can allocate $2,499.12 to the work on the estate I performed in

2012, reducing the amount over the limit to $6,542.36 ($9996.48- $955.00- $2499.12). Further, 1 am entitled to deduct "amounts received as reimbursement for

expenses incurred in producing income (compendium Section 33.2(b)), and thus I reduce the amount over the limit further by $644.00 in teaching transportation

expenses for 2011. Thus the overage from my Co-Executor Fee is $5,398.36 1am offsetting this remaining overage by returning this portion of my Exccutor Fee

to the estate for distribution.

Part 111-B 1 got married in 2011 and my spouse is a woman. . Since the federal government does not recognize my marriage, I checked " NONE".
