schirallicpa Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 Surviving spouse has filed MFS for a couple of years. Divorce never settled and then H died in April 2023. She got a request from IRS for 1310. I was kinda surprised. I am sure he never filed a return for 2022 before he died. He was self-employed and had gotten behind with taxes. The couple was separated. I did the wife's returns MFS for last 2 years. So this is only regarding her tax refund. He certainly would not have any. But I'm not understanding why we still need the 1310 when it's MFS. Oh well. Will fill out and send along...... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion EA Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 Maybe the SSA has the wrong spouse marked as deceased. Or, the IRS computers flagged the wrong spouse. I've seen other preparers say the IRS requested a 1310 when it was not needed in the situation (such as MFJ). Good luck. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
