Do I need to check anything if my son is in prison and i am filing his taxes for him. I have the power of attorney paper already

When working thru the return you will come to a question asking more about the person being filed in the return. There will be an option to select if the person in the return is currently incarcerated. Answer all questions accordingly. Before filing make sure that you have permission from the facility in which they are being detained.
