How do I begin my mom's decedent tax return after her passing?

In the Personal Info section, you can leave her info, but indicate that she is 'deceased'.  You'll be asked if you're preparing the return for a deceased person.  If she's getting a refund, TurboTax will prepare Form 1310 for you to receive it.

 

Here's more info on Filing a Final Return for a Deceased Taxpayer.

 

Sorry for your loss.
