A person having salary income and doesn't have tax due as for Form 16 is died in recent due to corona pandemic. Can his wife (a non tax payer) e-file ITR on behalf of the deceased husband now.... please inform in detail... Thanks.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses whether a wife can e-file an Income Tax Return (ITR) for her deceased husband, particularly when he had no tax due as per Form 16. The consensus is that she can, by registering as a legal heir on the income tax portal. Once registered as the deceased's representative, she can proceed with filing the return.
