Yes, if you are filing a joint tax return with your spouse, their Social Security number will already be included as part of the return.  Then you will be allowed to enter the SSA-1099 for the benefits they received prior to their death.  

 

If you are not filing a joint return for some reason, you would not enter your spouse's SSA-1099 as part of your return.  

 

Take a look at the following TurboTax help article for some guidance:

 

How should I file my return if my spouse recently died?

 

My condolences for your loss.
