I file my uncle's taxes each year thru TurboTax. He passed away in 2018. Can I still proceed to file his final/individual (NOT estate) 2018 tax return on Turbo Tax?

    just enter "taxpayer died" and date of death.

    Turbotax will apply the appropriate annotations.

    are you the appointed executor or personal representative?

    I am executor under the will.  To clarify, my question is not "am I authorized".... but rather, "does TurboTax have an option to select/box to check" for this type of situation?

    Thanks!  In coming weeks when I do the return I'll look for that option to click and go from there
