Funeral expenses are not deductible on any individual tax return, including the decedent's final return.

 

If the IRS requires you to file an estate tax return, list deductible funeral expenses on Form 706.

Sorry to hear about your father's passing.

 

Generally, funeral costs are not deductible, except on an estate tax return.
