Deductions & credits

Thanks for a rather clear response to my  question.  I have just one thing that maybe you could clarify:

 

Inheritance is NOT taxed at the Federal level.  Is this correct?

If this house WAS sold 9 months after death, and I enter the 1099S, will I probably have to pay tax the the IRS?  I will follow your instructions provided earlier, and maybe TurboTax itself will answer  this question.  When I questioned a realtor, they thought I would only be liable for STEP-UP value on that home...

 

Again, thanks for a quick response!!
