OK, a bit confused here. According to the IRS instructions for Form 1310, a personal representative (e.g, executor or administrator) of an estate does not have to fill out 1310, but he/she must attach a copy of the court issued order with the 1040. If that is the case, do you still have to fill out 1310 or are you suggesting that some kind of redundancy is advised in case of a screwup by the IRS?
