If you are married then you should be filing a joint return. By filing as “Married Filing Jointly” you will each get the $4050 personal exemptions and the standard deduction of $12,600 for a married couple. (for 2017 it will be $12,700)
You can file a joint return even if one of the spouses had little or no income.
