Help! Spouse unsure how to file as trust beneficiary

Any advice appreciated! Spouse grew up in a VERY toxic and abusive house, but a distant grandma put them as a beneficiary of her trust so, on SO's birthday at a certain age, they'd get the money.

SO's bday was in Nov, but due to marriage that year and name change, as well as PTSD-induced anxiety, SO didn't cash the check until this week. Soooo not sure how to file this. would it fall under 2024 or 2025?

Outside of this, our taxes are simple: - SO's part time job - my full time job - SO's student loans - my student loans - And of course, SO's weird trust situation

Should I just go to an in person expert? Would hate to waste the money if it's simple on Turbotax. Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated!
