Corrected 1099-R Question & Date of Death for Decedent on 8606?

Besides indicating “Inherited IRA” and Decedent’s name and account numbers to which thebeneficiary’s 8606 and respective 1099-Rs apply, should the date of decedent’s death also be written across the top of 8606 or not?

Also, I noticed in IRS 1040 instructions, it said if a W-2 C was corrected both versions need to be sent to IRS, but didn’t mention corrected 1099-Rs; if a corrected IRA 1099R is received, (Federal tax withheld) is it sufficient to just send IRS the Corrected 1099- R or must both be sent with return? I just don’t want to confuse things. Thank you for all your help.



Just send the corrected 1099R, and decedent’s DOD does not need to be shown on the 8606.



I appreciate your help so very much.
