Hi Sabrina,
Thank you for your reply! Just some follow-up questions after looking up the articles you shared:
1. For MD, what does it mean by "had different tax periods"? I never lived in MD, only my spouse lived there for a few months. Can we file states separately if we filed joint federal returns?
| Married couples who filed joint federal returns but had different tax periods | Joint return - Filing Status 2 OR Married filing separately - Filing Status 3 |
2. For DC, we both moved to DC in October, but only I have DC income, in this case, am I even considered a DC resident? Can we file joint federal return in our situation and separate filing for DC tax? Saw someone mentioned that filing separate is better for DC tax
