David S Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Call the IRS e-file help desk and ask them to check their database to see if the decedent is on it (takes 5-6 weeks after SSA has been notified). Once it is on the database, efile has worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack from Ohio Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Is it possible to e-file 1040 with DOD in March, 2008? thanks Best just to paper file and attach a copy of the death certificate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAMalody Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 No. You cannot e-file with a current year death. You will have to paper file the return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxperson Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 No. You cannot e-file with a current year death. You will have to paper file the return. Yes you can. The IRS will accept a return with a 2008 DoD. But David S was right. If it's efiled and the SSA data hasn't gotten to the IRS files, the return will reject.
