    He's got the refund personally, or the estate has got a refund and he's received the refund as executor?

    Is IHT actually payable on the estate?
    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!

    IHT is definitely due on the estate. 
    The refunds were sent as cheques in his name.

    They would go down as debts owed to the estate, so schedule IHT416 will be required.

    Currently ploughing through this myself. I think IHT416 is for formal loans. Things like refunds from utilities etc. go down in box 76 of IHT400. It's on page 49 of the Guide.

    Yes, having just looked at IHT416 I have to agree with that.

    Was asking if the refund from Self Assessment (for the deceased) is also recorded in the same box. 
    Is he correct?
