She should not be on your tax return at all. Delete her under My Info.

So sorry for the loss of your daughter. If she passed away in 2022, you were able to claim her as a dependent for your 2022 tax return, But now, you need to remove any information about her from a 2023 tax return. Delete the information about her in My Info.

If you are preparing a return for her, please explain what you are trying to accomplish. 2022 would be the last year that a tax return is required for her.

In particular, income in respect of a decedent (IRD) refers to untaxed income that a decedent had earned or had a right to receive during their lifetime. IRD is taxed to the individual beneficiary or entity that inherits this income.
