What You Should Know: 1  Some state taxpayers qualify for free electronic filing. Check out some options the Georgia Department of Revenue recommends and see if you qualify.  If you file paper returns, don't send the forms by certified mail. This slows the processing.
Your bf has to prove that he is the executor to his father's estate before he can cash any checks made payable to his deceased father. You really need to talk to a lawyer about this. You have to have the death certificate and proof that you are the beneficiary.. sign the dads name and under dads name he needs to sign his name.
If nobody is named the executor of his estate or if he did not have a will then you will have to go to probate court to have the court give someone the executor of state status. If the checks were issued AFTER death then you will need to call the place that issued the check to see if they can be cashed. BUT absolutly DO NOT just sign his name. This is fraud and punishable by fines or jail time.
