Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You can file IRS Form 1310 in TurboTax to claim the tax refund for a decedent return (a return filed on behalf of a deceased taxpayer). Here's how:

 

  1. Open the My Info section of your return.
  2. Select Passed Away before filing this return.
  3. Provide the date passed away.
  4. Search for form 1310 and select the jump to link.
  5. On the Complete a Claim for Refund screen, select Yes.
  6. Continue through the screens. 

We'll give you the option of paper-filing the form by itself or including it with the decedent's return when filed.
