The companies will probably not agree to reissue the 1099 form, but you can ask. 

 

If there is an estate set up for the deceased, then you would report the income on the estate tax return. If there is no estate and the money ended up in the hands of a beneficiary, then you would report it on that person's tax return.

 

The IRS won't look for a tax return for the deceased, since you filed the final return and they should have noted that. So, the W-2 filed with the deceased tax ID should not prompt the IRS to request a tax return from the deceased.
