Family Issues

Interest income of $494 for 2022 on a deceased person.

My dad died in May of 2021, I had called Discover and notified them of his death and to cancel his card. I didn’t know that there was an account still open that they sent $494 of interest for this year. They closed the account, finally, and sent a check. My question is do I have to file a tax return for the interest income for this year?
