Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Ohio

Probate

A partial probate has been completed on my significant other who passed away on 11/5/04, i.e. transfer of house and auto in my name. I need to file his income tax but am not sure if and how I need to sign before sending to IRS.

Re: Probate

You would put "Deceased" and the Date of Death next to your spouse's name. You can sign the return as Surviving Spouse if you are filing jointly. If you file separately and a refund is involved, you should attach a Form 1310 to claim the refund. This form is available at www.irs.gov
