Efile my deceased mother taxes - rejected

[wormer]

My mother passed on 12/23/2024 and I did here taxes as the trustee of her estate. It got rejected due to me using my date of birth for filing. I have since changed it to her birth date. However, I am trying to eFile and was wondering if I use my driver's license {if asked} for verification.  She was almost 97 and has not held a driver's license for over 15 years. What do I do?

I am sorry for your loss.  When filing the return, the IRS does not require an ID for E-filing.  ID verification is just an extra layer of security when filing, but it is not a requirement.  If she did not have a driver's license, you can indicate she didn't have one and can still e-file.  However, some states are picky about this and still require an ID for e-filing.  If your state requires this, you must print and mail the state return for filing.
