My husband's mother passed in Nov. 2021. We did file end-of-life taxes for her last year. My husband received the payout of 3 annuities in 2022 and received 1099R's. The 2 smaller annuity 1099R's had his mother's social security number and one had his. We are assuming that we still claim the 2 with her social security number??
Thank you!

Yes, as a beneficiary your husband can claim the two 1099-Rs on his tax return. Income in any year after the final return belongs to and is reported by the beneficiary. You can easily nominee the income to your husband by following the steps found below.
Nominee returns.
Generally, if you receive a Form 1099 for amounts that actually belong to another person or entity, you are considered a nominee recipient. You must file a Form 1099 with the IRS (the same type of Form 1099 you received). You must also furnish a Form 1099 to each of the other owners.
File the new Form 1099 with Form 1096 (this is a transmittal for the 1099) by mailing to the Internal Revenue Service Center for your area. (Provided on the Form 1096.)
The forms filed with the IRS should be the red copy so if you don't have a color printer, go to the IRS website and order the forms here:
After the income from the 1099-Rs is transferred to your husband using the nominee process shown above, that income can be added to your return and can be e-filed.
