So I have a very similar situation with my wife passing in 2020. I received "For the Estate of my wife" a 1099-MISC for $6,925.88 for payment of vacation, sick leave final paycheck, etc. I am filing jointly as normal. If I understand the answer to the related question correctly and to clarify, I enter the 1099-MISC amount as income, therefore, I'll be liable for the taxes as part of our normal filing, or is their a credit I can show somewhere because of IRD (Income Respect to Decedent)?
