My spouse died Nov of 08, he had a truck and credit cards in his name I had to let the truck be turned in 09 but I just received a 1099-c is this income that I have to report this year?  And does it count as income for social security

Was the truck EXCLUSIVELY in his name?  Is the Form 1099-C in his name?
 
If it is in his name, then the imputed income belongs to the estate and MAY have to be reported on a fiduciary return.  It depends on how much income is shown on the 1099-C.
 
HOW MUCH is the 1099-C for?
