Virginia Administrative Code
Title 23. Taxation
Agency 10. Department of Taxation
Chapter 115. Fiduciary Income Tax
11/21/2024

23VAC10-115-140. Definitions; declaration.

The following words and terms, when used in 23VAC10-115-140 and 23VAC10-115-145, shall have the following meanings unless the context clearly indicates otherwise:

"Estimated tax" means the amount which the fiduciary reasonably estimates to be the income tax due for the taxable year, less the amount estimated to be the sum of any credits allowable against the income tax. For this purpose, the refund of an overpayment of income tax which the fiduciary directs to be applied toward the estimated tax for the succeeding taxable year shall be considered an installment payment of estimated tax and not a credit against the income tax.

"Fiduciary" means the person who is required to file federal and Virginia income tax returns for the estate or trust, including the trustee of a trust and the executor or personal representative of an estate.

"Taxable year" means the taxable year of the estate or trust for federal income tax tax purposes.

Statutory Authority
