I realize the info I'm looking for probably exists in bits and pieces throughout NES but I'm having a hard time finding it.
I'm looking at putting in for my first NFA item and want to set up a trust. I know who I'm going to use to set it up and it's a good price. I'm just having a hard time understanding how the trust is used in practice.
Effectively right now I'm only getting it to bypass complications while submitting my forms. I'm sure later in life I'll have a family which I'll add to it (making the trust more useful) but right now it's just to make things easy and avoid having to re-pay the $200 per item later in life when I'll inevitably want a trust.
So I set up the trust. I'm the Trustee and a close friend is named as the secondary Trustee and Beneficiary to satisfy the minimum need for setting it up.
Now what? Do I have a piece of paper that I submit with my Form 4? What else happens? How does one make official changes (such as adding family members to a trust)? Just having a hard time understanding how it all functions once it's set up, and I'd like that understanding before I pay out to set it up.
