My sister passed away and she was the trustee of my deceased father's Trust. I am now the successor trustee of both her trust and my father's trust, and I am the only beneficiary of her trust. I filed federal tax returns for both Trusts, but am not sure where to file the state tax return. Both my sister and father were residents of Florida, where both trusts were formed, but I am a resident of North Carolina. What should I do?

In California, if I use dividend and interest income from stocks and bonds, which were given to me by my parents, for community purposes with my wife, does that mean these assets become community property?

I separated from my husband in March 2016 but did not divorce him due to my religious beliefs. We filed our taxes separately for 2016, and I filed as single. Did I do something illegal, and could this affect my financial aid?

I am semi-retired, sold a rental property I had for 3 years, and have a capital gain of about $60K. I am single, no dependents, and will have about $30K in 1099 income this year. Will I owe 15% tax liability on this gain, or because I have only $30K in contract income, will I have no tax liability on the proceeds? I live in Texas. Is there anything else important the accountant should know?
