If a final 1040 was filed in 2015 for my deceased mother, what do i do with income in 2016

[dmml]

My mother in law passed away in 2015.  we filed her return for 2015, stating she was deceased.  in 2016 she received 1099s with interest income and a 1098 from the sale of her home, how do we account for that on a 2016 return.  my husband is the executor of her estate.  thank you

The income earned after death for an individual would go on a 104! Estate tax return.

If there is a lawyer involved with the Estate many times they file this, so I suggest you talk with them.

If you want to do the 1041, it is competed on TurboTax Business software (not home & business or self-employed).
