Get your taxes done using TurboTax

No, as long as you did not remarry in 2021, you can still file a joint return with your spouse for your 2021 tax return.

 

As you go through the Personal Info section of the return, be sure to indicate that your spouse has passed away and the date of death.  This will allow TurboTax to make the proper designation on your return as well as trigger any additional information screens to help you along the way.

 

My condolences for your loss.

 

Take a look at the following TurboTax article for further information:
