How to file for deceased?

When you start a New return using TurboTax Online, on the first-page state you are preparing a return for "someone else", then a screen will appear asking if "Are you preparing this return for someone who passed away?".

Then follow the prompts to enter the remaining details as shown in the screenshot.

How to file for deceased?

I am using a purchased turbotax. Form 1032 does not work. I know I must submit a paper return for my deceased partner and I am trying to submit efile for my return by filling out both returns on turbotax but only submitting mine by efile.

How to file for deceased?

You have to file separate returns for you and your partner. In each return, you will report the eligible amount for a split pension. 

The final return for the deceased cannot be prepared together with a common-law or a spouse return.
