Deceased parent

[Wolfcreek]

My widowed mother passed in February 2023.  She had limited income so taxes had not had to be filed for several years.  She did own property off of which we arranged a timber sale to pay for her care, but before the sale was completed, she died.  The sale was completed before the probate was final.  The receipts were placed in a estate account.  What is the best procedure to report this situation,

Almost certainly a 1041 needs to be filed for the estate if property were sold out of the estate.

You might want to contact the attorney who handled the probate matter for guidance as both state and federal law are in play.
