Hey, if my father in law has dementia and my husband is POA how does my husband sign the 1040? Does he sign as Trustee or POA after his name? I see form 2848 but it says the taxpayer has to sign page 2 line 7. If the taxpayer has to sign the 2848 what's the point of form 2848? He can't sign anything. Or do I need another form? Or do I just have to attach the full POA to the return? And this is a Joint return with mother deceased in 2020.
