I'm sorry for your loss. You can create a return in TurboTax for your aunt. Prepare the return with your aunt as the
taxpayer (as if she will doing the return herself).
During the interview you will see
a screen Do
Any of These Apply to [your aunt's name]?
1. Mark the box Passed away before filing this return.
2. Enter her date of death in the
box provided and Click on “Continue.”
3. As you continue through the
interview TurboTax will ask you for additional information if needed.
If you missed that screen, you
can enter the information in the Personal Info section:
Click on the My Info link (left-hand column on your screen).
Click on Edit next to your aunt's name.
In Section 3, mark the box that “I'm
preparing this return for [aunt's name], who has passed away.”
Please see screenshots below.
