Get your taxes done using TurboTax
You do not claim a spouse as a dependent. When you are married and living together, you can only file a tax return as either Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separately. You would want to file as MFJ even if one spouse has little or no income. You receive the highest standard deduction of $12,400 and you each receive a personal exemption of $3,950.
