Question

My husband passed last year (2021), but I did the whole turbo tax but nothing came up about that except the part where I add that I'm a widow. Where r forms needed? Thanx

I used the simplified w-2 version.
I recall early on there was a question if I was filing for a deceased. I answered no because I was filing jointly. Should I have answered "yes"? Forms DR 0104 CR and DR 0102 showed up at the end for me to review. But I can't find how to access them to add required info. Thanks

Sorry for your loss. 

Don't answer yes to the question Are you filing for a deceased. 

If your spouse died in 2021, you should file jointly with your late spouse unless you remarried in 2021.

  1. Revisit the Personal info section.
  2. Select Edit next to your Husband's name .
  3. Check the box Passed away before filing this return.
