Get your taxes done using TurboTax

My mother passed in Feb 2020 and we filed for her as a deceased person but we mistakenly filed her date of death as Feb 2019.  Do we need to correct that with the IRS?  We had to file a copy of the death certificate and her return was accepted.  We did finally get her refund, but it took a long time.  We need to file 2020 taxes for her.  Is it ok that we report the correct date of death?
