@RafiH is correct. There is no death benefit exclusion.
Per IRS: Death benefit exclusion: If you were the beneficiary of a deceased employee (or former employee) who died before August 21, 1996, you may have qualified for a death benefit exclusion of up to $5,000.
- The beneficiary of a deceased employee who died after August 20, 1996, won't qualify for the death benefit exclusion.
