Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I am trying to e-file my mother's final return. She is due a refund and it is absolutely absurd that the only way to e-file seems to be to select 'C' in Part 1 of form 1310.  I am the court appointed executor, so the correct choice clearly is 'B' yet that precludes e-filing, even though I specified that my documentation has previously been completed and sent to the IRS.  This seems like a clear and very annoying bug in Turbotax (using Deluxe version, purchased and downloaded to a Mac), considering the IRS says that you can e-file for a deceased person.

 

Is there any consequence to checking 'C' and e-filing, then sending a separate 1310 by mail (instead of the whole huge return) to correct it?  When you e-file and have 'C' checked, how is that reflected in what gets sent to the IRS via e-filing?
