Yes. You may want to read IRS Pub 559 for Survivors, Executors and Administrators.

Publication 559 is designed to help those in charge of the property (estate) of an

Individual who has died (decedent). It shows them how to complete and file federal income tax returns and points out their responsibility to pay any taxes due.

A comprehensive example, using tax forms, is included near the end of this publication.

Go to the IRS gov web site and use the search box for Publication 559, Survivors, Executors, and Administrators.
