According to the IRS -
You must file Form 1310 if the description in line A, line B, or line C on the form above applies to you.
The descriptions-
A Surviving spouse requesting reissuance of a refund check received in the name of both the decedent and the surviving spouse.
B Court-appointed or certified personal representative (defined below) claiming a refund on Form 1040-X or Form 843. If you check the box on line B, you must attach a court certificate showing your appointment, unless you have previously filed that certificate with the IRS.
C Person, other than A or B, claiming refund for the decedent’s estate. If you check the box on line C, you must complete Part II.
Everyone described there is required to file form 1310. Even the spouse of the deceased.
