Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Once married, you have the choice of filing Married Filing Separately or filing Married Filing Jointly.
USUALLY the most advantageous way to file is Married Filing Jointly because some credit become disallowed when a taxpayer files Married Filing Separately.
Filing Married Filing Separately is usually done for a particular reason, such as one spouse not wanting to be responsible for the other spouses tax liability.
Another issue is if you were married in a community property state, such as California. hen you are married and file in a community property state, there are rules as to how the income for you both must be divided and allocated to each return.
