It is just asking you if you will follow the laws of the state the decedent was from when handling the refunded amount.
Line 3: As the person claiming the refund for the decedent’s estate, will you pay out the refund according to the laws of the state where the decedent was a legal resident?
If you answer No to this question, the IRS will not issue a refund until you submit either of the following:
- A court certificate showing your appointment as personal representative, or
- Other evidence that you are entitled under state law to receive the refund
