State tax filing

If your aunt died in 2021 and did not receive the third of the Economic Impact Payments, she may be eligible for the 2021 Recovery Rebate Credit if she met the eligibility requirements while alive.  You will have to file a tax return for your aunt in order to receive the credit as a tax refund.  The person in charge of the estate is responsible for making sure the tax return is filed. This could be the executor, spouse or anyone else in charge of the decedent’s property.
