I am unsure if my parents are alive or not. What do I answer when asked if they are deceased?

Havent seen or heard from my parents in 5 years. Last I heard both were in the hospitable on complications but was never confirmed on their survival. 

 

To make sure my question is clear, I mean what do I answer when my tax form asks me on that living status of my parents.

It would also depend on what section of a tax form you are being asked the question.

 

If you have additional questions on that matter, please clarify where in the software you are being asked the question and why the software might want to know.
