OP's parent died owing money to the IRS. OP inherited some money from the estate. I don't know if the tax debt is for one year or more. OP is look
for how to pay (up to the amount of what was inherited) the parent's tax
debt.

Should they just file a final return and send in what they can? Or is
there some other approach? I looked at Publication 559 but couldn't find anything helpful - perhaps I missed it.

Any thoughts? Thanks.
