My divorce was finalized in 2016. My husband and I both had W2 income for the entire year. How do I report income on my return filing as Single? Both of our W2 income divided by two? Or just mine? (And he will report all of his W2 income on his return.)

If you were not legally married on 12/31/2016 you would file as Single. You only enter your income, expenses and deductions on your tax return, no one else's.

For the entire year? Even before the divorce?
