I am filing my deceased father's tax return. He is single, and I have completed the form however he is eligible for a refund. how can the refund be received?

I have completed the turbo tax filing information for my dad, however I am unsure how to go about receiving the tax return that he would be owed. There is will or court ordered representative so by default I am his representative. If I request the proceeds by check, would they be made out to his estate? How is a check like this cashed? Because he has very little assets, by state law there is no probate or anything official. Thank you.
