Indiana Schedule 7 reports additional information required for the Indiana return.

Line 5 on Schedule 7 reports the date of death for the taxpayer and/or spouse. If a date of death is entered in the Basic Information section of the Federal Q&A, then the month and day will transfer to the Indiana return and be displayed on Line 5.

We understand that seeing a year printed on this line of the form may be misleading. However, the Indiana Department of Revenue specifications require us to hard-code the year on this form, whether or not the taxpayer or spouse is deceased. Indiana will ignore the year unless a month and day have been entered on Line 5.
