Yes, you would sign as if you were the taxpayer, and proceed to e-file it. The signature will default to the taxpayer's, but within three days of receiving acknowledgement that the return was accepted, send the completed Form 8453, along with the Power of Attorney, to
Internal Revenue Service
Attn: Shipping and Receiving
0254 Receipt and Control Branch
Austin, TX 73344-0254
That way you will show that you have the authority to act for the taxpayer.
