Payments to deceased taxpayers. First, we want to express our apologies that you are even having to deal with this. We just received information about what to do with Economic Impact Payments (EIP) made to deceased taxpayers. Below is the guidance from the IRS. The information has posted May 6, 2020 to the EIP page on IRS.gov.

Does someone who has died qualify for the Payment?

No. A Payment made to someone who died before receipt of the Payment should be returned to the IRS by following the instructions about repayments. Return the entire Payment unless the Payment was made to joint filers and one spouse had not died before receipt of the Payment, in which case, you only need to return the portion of the Payment made on account of the decedent. This amount will be $1,200 unless adjusted gross income exceeded $150,000.

More About the Economic Impact Payment

What should I do to return an Economic Impact Payment (EIP)? 

You should return the payment as described below.

If the payment was a paper check:
  1. Write “Void” in the endorsement section on the back of the check.
  2. Mail the voided Treasury check immediately to the appropriate IRS location listed below.
  3. Don’t staple, bend, or paper clip the check.
  4. Include a note stating the reason for returning the check.
If the payment was a paper check and you have cashed it, or if the payment was a direct deposit:
  1. Submit a personal check, money order, etc., immediately to the appropriate IRS location listed below.
  2. Write on the check/money order made payable to “U.S. Treasury” and write 2020EIP, and the taxpayer identification number (social security number,  or individual taxpayer identification number) of the recipient of the check.
  3. Include a brief explanation of the reason for returning the EIP.

For your paper check, click here for the IRS mailing addresses to use based on the state.
