A very close friend of mine passed away in 2022. The Local Court has appointed me as the PR / Administrator of his estate. As i dig in to his past i see he has never filed any taxes with the IRS or States. I request the last 3 years of Taxes from the IRS and they reported back nothing on file.. How Do I move forward? Even the CPA is at a loss because they want to see what the IRS has on file for him as his past income. But there appears to be no way to get that info from the IRS as I cannot log into the IRS website with Face Recognition now to see what they have collected for income over the years. They suggest i visit the IRS offices however the closest IRS location is more than 3 hours away (one direction) and I am concerned they will just try to ask me questions I do not have answers for and end up auditing the deceased for the last 10 years. And of course I have very little records for his past.. How do I move forward. People that do not pay taxes dont really keep records. Ugg.
