Get your taxes done using TurboTax
You will need to send the court certificate showing your appointment attached. You may also want to send an IRS Form 56 . Form 56 should be filed by a fiduciary to notify the IRS of the creation or termination of a fiduciary relationship.
A fiduciary is treated by the IRS as if he or she is actually the taxpayer. Upon appointment, the fiduciary automatically has both the right and the responsibility to undertake all actions the taxpayer is required to perform. For example, the fiduciary must file returns and pay any taxes due on behalf of the taxpayer.
