Yes, there is one final personal tax return due for the last year in which someone lives. The executor or administrator of the estate is responsible for getting it done but it's usually the attorney handling the estate that does it. |

Yes the person who is the responsible for their estate must file their taxes for the year that person died. When you or the executor of the estate takes the taxes in to be filed just let them know this person is deceased and take a certified copy of the death certificate with you to submit to the IRS, IF you don't file them once the IRS finds out that person is deceased they can audit the estate and the executor of the estate. |

The deceased person does not, that wouldnt make much sense now would it?
Usually people select someone to be there Executor of there Estate. Which means, that person is responsible for making sure all the bills are paid after death so that any and all assets that are up for inheritance can be distributed |

His/her estate does.
Being dead won't get you outta paying taxes... not the first year anyways. |

Yes, but they need to use a 1040-PA (passed away) and pay an extra penalty. |

no. However, the government CAN go after the estate. Which is why you set up an "Irrevocable Trust"--NOT a will. Will's can be contested, probated. |
