neither of you. i would think his parents, or sibling. whoever is the legal next of kin.
but i dont think anyone has to file for him since he is deceased. (sorry about your loss btw)
btw, the pp is wrong, the employer files a W-4, taxpayers file a W-2

Neither one of you files a W-2. His employer files the W-2.

You may not file any income taxes for him, you are not legally married. You should call the IRS or visit IRS.com on line for the answers, don't speculate. The IRS has free help for all tax payers.

Very sorry to hear of your loss !
Simply send it with a copy of the death certificate to the IRS. Dead people do not have to pay taxes, file taxes nor do they pass their tax consequence on to others left behind.

Neither. If she's an ex-wife she hasn't the right; and you wern't legally married. Executor of his estate would be the best choice unless they were still legally married; then it's her as spouse.

Whomever is appointed personal representative of his estate will make that decision...usually, if unwed, it is the parent.

I am not 100% sure, but I don't think either of you can file it.

His legal next of kin. I'm not sure who that would be, were they married? For some reason I don't think its you.
