Sorry to hear about your loss.

 

To file taxes on behalf of a deceased individual, you can follow these steps to indicate their status as deceased:

  1. When starting the return process, select Someone Else to the question Let’s get started. Who are you preparing this return for?
  2. Enter the name of the deceased and indicate that you're preparing the return for someone who has passed away
  3. Enter their date of death, then select Continue
  4. Complete the next sections of their return until you reach Let's get the rest of your personal info, where you'll need to provide additional personal information for the deceased. Select Continue once you've completed this section.
