My husband passed away in January 2010.
I would like to file tax return - Married Filing Jointly.
However, his employer doesn't give me his W-2 form until I give them a copy of his death certificate and a legal document stating who is the executor of his estate and their address.
I can send them his death certificate soon but the legal document is not ready and I don't know when I will get it.
Do I really need to give them the document?

The employer wants the extra information to protect itself. It is probably not unreasonable that the employer is asking for the extra documentation.
You may wish to consult with an attorney for a more in-depth analysis of your situation.
Good Luck!
