Yes, the PA-40 should show a Y next to deceased and a date of death. Are you preparing the return for a Single Taxpayer? Pennsylvania requires a surviving spouse to file separate returns for themself and their deceased spouse.
There are a couple things you could try. Delete the Pennsylvania State Return. In TurboTax Online, go to State Taxes in the left-side menu, then use the Trash Can Icon to delete the PA return.
Go back to the MY INFO section in Federal, and page through the screens where you entered Deceased and Date.
Then close TurboTax, clear your Cache and Cookies, and return to the State Taxes tab. Recreate the PA return and see if the PA-40 now shows the correct info.
If you're using TurboTax Desktop, in FORMS mode, you can simply mark the correct choices right on the PA-40.
Let us know if this doesn't resolve the issue, and we'll try to help further.
