My husband passed November 2023, I finally decided to sell our home July 2024, but I was told by our attorney that I had to do Probate. I received the IRS letter for the EIN. I was on the Warranty Deed, I half owned our house. How do I file a 1041?

The type of deed is not relevant. How you held title is relevant. If the property did not pass to you by operation of law (e.g., as joint tenants with rights of survivorship), then your attorney is likely correct.

 

If you need to file a 1041, you should seek guidance from a local tax professional, Your attorney should be able to refer you to one.

 

I am sorry for your loss.
