1099 on joint account after death of Primary Account Holder

I share a joint brokerage account with my Uncle who passed away on Jan 10th.  The 1099 will come under his SSN.  Does that mean I need to file the 1099 under his tax return for 2021.  If it helps in 2020, it was filed under his SSN.  Do I have the option to file under my SSN?  I read somewhere that I would file profit/loss of the accounts through his date of death (Jan 10th, 2021) then any profit/loss after that I would file under my SSN?

 

Could I sign up right now with Turbo Tax Live for 2021 to talk to a CPA even though I don't have the 1099 yet?
