File IRS Form 56

Once an Employer Identification Number (EIN) has been created, file IRS Form 56 with the IRS.

This will notify the IRS that an Executor or Administrator has assumed management of the deceased's Estate and they now have the authority to manage the taxes returns of the deceased's Estate.

This form additionally tells the IRS where to mail tax notices going forward.
