Does anyone know what "properly credited" means when it comes to Tier 2 distributions from a decednt's estate?  If the amount is "credited" by giving the beneficiary a promissory note before the year end, by when does it actually have to be paid in order for the estate to take a distribution deduction?  We want the beneficiary to pay tax on the income and not the  decedent's estate.

The last time I looked there wasn't much to go on.  You might look at Estate of Johnson 88 TC 225 for a relatively recent (1987) Tax Court case.  Here, bookkeeping entries weren't enough.
