Form 513 Oklahoma

What Is Oklahoma Form 513?

Form 513, also referred to as the Oklahoma Resident Fiduciary Income Tax Return Packet, is a document required by the Oklahoma Tax Commission (OTC). It's used by trustees, executors, or administrators of an estate or trust that generates income within the state of Oklahoma. This form ensures that the fiduciary files and pays any income taxes due on behalf of the estate or trust.

Who needs to file the 513 form?

Filing the 513 form is mandatory for any fiduciary overseeing a resident estate or trust in Oklahoma that has earned income during the tax year. Whether it's interest, dividends, or rental income, this form accounts for all taxable income and is crucial for staying compliant with state tax laws.

Completing this Oklahoma form template involves several steps that require attention to detail:

1. Begin by selecting the taxable period at the top of the form and entering the start and end dates of the fiscal year for which the tax return is being filed. If the fiscal period is the standard calendar year, simply enter January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021.
