I recommend you report it on your 2023 tax return as other income. Do not file a return for your spouse to report it. To report as Other Income in TurboTax:
This is called "income in respect of a decedent." As long as you are the beneficiary or the person authorized to receive this income, you can report it on your return as if it was paid to you. Report it as "other income," not as a 1099-R.
