Spoke to the deceased partners wife today.  She has no interest in the business and is in some talks with the remaining partner as to compensation for the assets the partnership has accumulated.  So it seems to me that the partnership is still in force until the distribution of the assets is completed.  Am I wrong in that assumption?

My other concern is, when the remaining partner converted to a sole, the same EIN was used.  Wouldn't that be an issue when filing?
