If you are filing using an online version, begin in the My Info section and indicate that you are preparing the return for your father-in-law who passed. Then enter his income and deductions as you have for your own return up to his date of death.
For income earned by his estate after his date of death, you would file an estate tax return if income is greater than $600.
