Tax on 6k residue

I inherited from one of my parents and paid tax by filing the IT38 with Revenue a few years ago. I was over the threshold for a child.

The estate is now ready to wind up and the accountant is about to de-register it with Revenue. He returned 3 years of tax returns to the end of 2019.

There is now a circa 6k residue left in the estate’s bank account due to be split equally between myself and my sister as the joint beneficiaries of the residue.

What’s the process to pay tax on the 6k? Do we just submit another IT38 each and send revenue a cheque for 1k each?

Many thanks.
 
I asked my accountant and he said he wasn’t sure. My solicitor told me she would have to request the file from archives and there would be a €150 + VAT charge before she could advise and she might need to get a tax consultant so any thoughts from anybody would be appreciated.
