Estate Tax Return - Change Executor to Administrator

I'm the Administrator for my late father's estate. He died without a will.

TT Business seems to only allow you to choose Executor on the form. 

Is there a way to correct it to Administrator, so it's titled correctly on the tax forms?

Not really, and it actually makes no difference whatsoever. 

 

The correct term, and the one used by the IRS, is "Fiduciary", which encompasses both executors and administrators.
