so we filed an extension for estate return

widow calling and needs his estate tax done/filed...  as she says it costs her $1,000 every time she has to ask for an extension?

1 - she is married to him - so it would be be their estate - hers not his to file?

2 - what would cost $$ to file and $1,000?!

is she being scammed?

He had a guardian prior to his passing and was filiing mfs - ???

but they were living together...

Any light on this?

Thx d

If he passed, it's HIS estate.  She might be adminstrator/rep/executor/whatever-they-call-it.

Filing an extension should cost NOTHING - unless maybe if she's getting a lawyer involved?

Is she competent to be the intermediary here?  There are SO many problems with your question that all my alarm bells are going off.

You might have just hit on the problem - an attorney filed it. 

There are so many elements in your original post that I can't jump in and offer anything without further information.  And the further information is likely to be horribly complicated.  Sorry.
