04 June 2019 Dear Sir/Mam,

I want to file Income Tax Return for A.Y. 2019-20 of a woman assessee. The assesse's husband is expired prior to A.Y. 2018-19 but the wife has kept open the bank account of husband since the refund of prior years are pending to be issued by Income Tax.The Bank has deducted TDS for A.Y. 2019-20 in the wife's husband PAN and the TDS amount gets reflected in Form 26AS.

My query is whether I must file 2 different returns for A.Y. 2019-20 or I must club the Income and TDS amount of husband in the wife's Income Tax return while filing the return.

Please help.

Regards,
Divyesh Jain

05 June 2019 File single return in the name of wife. Ask the bankers to correct PAN number of wife in TDS return instead of husband.

05 June 2019 If the wife inform the bankers about the death of her husband they will close her husband's account which she doesn't want to as previous years refunds of her husband are pending to be issued in the same bank
