My wife's father in law passed and he owned part of a farm. If a government covid payment was made to the estate prior to the estate distribution, does it need to be included on the heirs taxes for the year?

    The IRS  states that a payment made to someone who died before they received the payment, the payment should be returned to the IRS.
