My sister passed away and I'm trying to file her taxes but can't seem to figure out how to get this to start.

How do I begin to file my deceased sister's taxes?

You will prepare the return with her information except:

  • You will enter your address and phone number.
  • You will indicate that "I am preparing this return for <name>J, who has passed away." in the personal info section. 
  • When you get to the filing section, you will enter some information as representative.
