My father passed away late 2019 and I paper filed his return. Today a letter came in asking for a copy of one of his W2 forms that I forgot to include and to fill out form 1310 to claim his tax refund to pay off his credit card debt. My question is how long does it take the IRS to process the form and release the refund? Someone else told me it took all year and they ended up needing a taxpayer advocate to help.

Unfortunately, the only information the IRS has for a timeframe on the processing of the 1310 form is:

"The average time and expenses required to complete and file this form will vary depending on individual circumstances. For the estimated averages, see the instructions for your income tax return." About Form 1310

You could contact the IRS directly: How do I contact the Internal Revenue Service (IRS)?
