I got this for my deceased husbands vacation pay. It was made out to the estate of my husband. It isn't taxable $$. But it keeps taxing it. What am I doing wrong?
Vacation pay is considered taxable income, so it should be taxed. Even though it was from your husbands estate, it is taxed the same way as it would be if you received it from your employer.
