2. Begin by entering the tax year for which the decedent was due a refund. This can be a calendar year or another tax year beginning on a specified date.

6. If you selected line C, complete Part II by answering questions about whether the decedent left a will and if a personal representative has been appointed. Ensure you go through all questions carefully.
7. In Part III, sign and date the form confirming that you request a refund due to overpayment by the decedent. Optionally, include your phone number.
8. Once the form is complete, you can save changes, download, print, or share the form as needed. Follow the instructions for where to send the form based on your situation.
