Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the login process for registering as a Representative Assessee for a deceased individual. It explains that you should log in using the deceased person's e-filing ID and password, not your own. The process involves obtaining approval from the ITD by registering as a legal representative first, then logging in with the legal heir's credentials to file the return. You'll need to upload the deceased's PAN card, death certificate, and legal heir certificate.
