Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you were not legally divorced, you would have to file as Married- Joint, Separate or Head of Household (if you qualify).  In your case, since you lived apart, you most likely should file Separate.  See Tax Tips for Separated Couples - TurboTax Tax Tips & Videos.
