Can I still create joint returns for my parents who both died during 2017? They did not die on the same day. They died 12 days apart.

I'm very sorry for your loss.

Unfortunately, one can't prepare two returns together at the same time (aka joint or coupled) when one of the filers has passed away during the tax year.
