Estate Distributions Questions

Hi, I have personally received an estate distribution from my dad’s estate. But it is a personal check written from the successor trustee’s personal bank account. It is in excess of $10,000. Is it ok to deposit and cash a handwritten check from a personal bank account as an estate distribution or should I request a check from my dad’s estate/trust checking account for the estate distribution? Does an estate payout require filing irs form 8300 or will the Schedule k1 form that will be filed at the end of the year by the Trust be sufficient? Thank you very much for any help or guidance. I’m so confused. Thank you, Camille S
