1099-B received for taxpayer that died 7 years ago with gross proceeds of $692. Should a new 1041 be filed?

Technically, yes.

Practically - who got the money? Tell them to report the sale on their return. If IRS ever inquires, tell them that was done.

The more I know the more I don’t know.

After 7 years, my guess is the state unclaimed property office got the money. 🙂
