You can decide if you want to file a joint or separate federal tax return. Your Massachusetts filing status may differ from that allowed on your federal return.
If married taxpayers have a Massachusetts residency tax year that begins and ends on different days, they must file married filing separately. You would file a Resident tax return, and she would file a Part Year Resident tax return.
Texas does not have a personal income tax.
