In answer to your question, most likely. But you need to contact a CPA and an attorney ASAP.

Sorry to hear about your mother lefty.

You probably do not need to file separate taxes..
Simply report it as your income on the tax forms.

And unless it's over $600,000, you probably won't even have to report it on your income but taxes will have to be filed for your Mother and on the estate.
But do speak with a tax person about this.

lefty...sorry about your loss...best thing to do you have already been told: contact a CPA. I'm sorry, don't know your story. But if I can help any (specific questions) feel free to email me at fitzirishcream@optonline.net. At the very least, I may be able to point you in the right direction where you can do some research on your own.

My mom died and I have her house and monies from her.
I'm just kind of curious.
Do you just "have" the house & money or was it given to you as part of her estate (meaning it has officially been given to you)?
