Get your taxes done using TurboTax
If your status was "married" on Dec 31 of the tax year or before, then regardless of when you receive the marriage certificate, your only legal filing status for 2017 is either MFS or MFJ. If the JOP married you on or before Dec 31 of the tax year, you are married for tax purposes, for the whole tax year.
