Some of these responsibilities include: paying creditors and taxes on the estate, notifying social security and other agencies of the deceased death, canceling credit cards among other things, and distributing the assets left in the estate.The executor of an estate has tremendous responsibility from small tasks to large ones. the executor of the deceased's estate must make sure all of the deceased's taxes and debts are paid, and then distribute what is left to the appropriate beneficiaries.

If someone owes taxes a dies what happen next?
This is a very interesting question. If someone dies and owes money to the IRS, the Executor (the person who takes responsibility for the deceased person's estate) is then responsible for settling the person's debts (using the deceased person's estate, not their own money or assets). The Executor is responsible for collecting and arranging for payment of debts of the estate and approving or disapproving creditors' claims. The money in the estate must be used to pay off the person's debt. If, however, the deceased person does not have any money in the esate to be able to pay off the tax liability, the debt DOES NOT transfer to the Executor UNLESS there was a joint liability with the deceased (if the Executor is the widow or widower of the deceased, and the two had filed joint returns, the liability will be assessed to the Executor). Otherwise, the Executor will need to contact the IRS, provide a death certificate and evidence that the estate is unable to pay off the liability. The debt should then be canceled once and for all. For information on claiming a refund for a deceased person, you'll need to file a Form 1310.
