Filing a "Final" tax return for a deceased person

My father passed away in February 2021 and I am his executor. His 2020 tax return has been filed (not by me and not using TurboTax) and NOA has been received and all is complete. My understanding is that I can file his 2021 tax return ahead of the usual CRA tax filing schedule. Can I use my my current 2020 version of TurboTax? How would I identify this return as the return for 2021? Any other tips would be appreciated.

You cannot use 2020 TurboTax to file a 2021 return.
