Thanks for posting this, I would have never thought of executor expenses for tax purposes. As it is I am talking to my accountant today to go over these types of things.

Let me know what he says. What I'm finding is very... vague, and deals mainly with incorporated estate agents (attorneys, CPAs, etc.)
I'm going to ask the useless lump of lump attorney who's probating Mom's estate. I expect that he'll launch into a long explanation about how he's the estate's attorney, he's not my attorney nor a CPA blah blah blah blah... Yeah, Pete, I get that. I'm asking hypothetically, so answer hypothetically.
For me it's also complicated by the fact that I got partial reimbursement this year, and won't get final reimbursement until next year when the estate finally closes.
