Does anyone know if on a final 1041 you can pass out to the beneficiaries unused foreign tax credit carryovers, or are they just lost?

Thank you

I don't know for certain. The trust returns that I prepare distribute all of the income so that the credits are distributed each year - they would only be available on the fiduciary return in a year when deductions exceeded income.

Foreign tax credits can only be carried over for 5 years so there would be a very short window in which to use them.
