How do we file taxes for my brother who died in 2007?
Q. My brother died in May 2007. He left behind a 2 year old daughter who lives with my parents who have guardianship of her. Do they: 1. File their taxes as usual and claim my niece on their taxes as a dependent? or 2. File taxes on behalf of my brother and claim her on his taxes? or 3. Do they even need to file taxes on his behalf? We've tried looking online on the IRS website and can't find anything pertaining to this situation. Any suggestions?

A. I'm not sure who whe executor of his estate would be but that would be the person to ask. If it's one of your parents then maybe they can contact a lawyer or a CPA to get more answers.
