Taxes
When a person dies, federal income taxes still must be paid by the April 15 deadline. The Internal Revenue Service has a free booklet to help prepare the deceased's tax return called "Tax Information for Survivors and Executors and Administrators," Publication 559, which is posted at www.irs.gov. Property taxes also must be paid on time.
