Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@lizlilliott 96% of married couples file "Joint" - because Congress passes tax laws that incent that behavior.  

Unless this involves student loan debt repayment, I have yet to see a situation where filing Separate makes FINANACIAL sense.

 

That last 4% - married couples that can't agree - for whatever reason - to both sign the tax return.   

 

if your spouse owes back taxes or child support, best to file Joint and file Injured Spouse (form 8379) to protect YOUR refund from garnishment.
