My husband passed in 2025 and since I am filing jointly, I just want to make sure I have filled out everything properly. I also need to know how I sign the return.

How do I sign my return. My husband passed in 2025.

When filing a joint tax return for a deceased spouse, sign your name and write "filing as surviving spouse" in the signature area for the deceased.

In Personal Info, verify that you indicated "Married Filing Jointly", checked the "passed away" for him, and entered the date of death.
Complete Form 1310 (if you have a refund).  TurboTax will prompt you in the File section.
On the print of the return, make sure the word "Deceased" is next to his name on the final Form 1040.
 

For the signature, you will see a separate section to sign for your husband.

• Do not use his old PIN or his previous AGI. You are signing on his behalf.
• For his signature, you will simply use your own information again or create a new PIN for him as the representative.
• On the screen asking for his prior-year AGI, you will use the Joint 2024 AGI from your combined return last year (which is the same number you used for yourself).
• For his 5-digit PIN, you can create a new, distinct 5-digit PIN

I am sorry for your loss.
