Is a taxpayer still eligible for a covid stimulus payment if he died before the money was distributed?

Only one stimulus payment was received before he passed away, but the refund includes a credit for the second payment. What is the correct way to proceed?

A deceased taxpayer who passed after 1 January 2020 is eligible for the Recovery Rebate Credit on the 2020 tax return.  You will continue with the credit claimed on the tax return.  

 

Here is a link with more information on the Recovery Rebate Credit.  See question B12.
