1) On Form 1041.
2) Certain trusts are permitted to be combined directly
onto form 1040. These are usually (but not limited to)
"grantor trusts." See the Treasury Regulations under IRC
section 671 especially -3 and -4.

If you are receiving income from a trust you will receive a
form 1041 K-1 and that will tell you where on your form 1040
to report the income

Income from the trust retains the character of the income
passtrough. So, those items are taxed the same way on the
1040 as they would have been if not coming from a trust.

If you're referring to a Revocable Living Trust, the income
is reported on the return for the individual who owns the
Trust (and can be included on a MFJ return, as well).

In other cases, the Trust will have acquired a Tax
Identification Number, and the distribution of its income
will be reported on Form K-1s for the beneficiaries of the
Trust.

I assume this is not a grantor trust and you are the
grantor/trustee? If so, chances are the trust would be a
disregarded entity.

If you received payments from a trust you should be sent a
Form 1041 Schedule K-1 with all that information.
