My wife and I reside in CA. Ours is a late in life marriage so we have separate incomes, separate investments separate bank accounts and have no “joint” income stream.
We are filing separately as it actually makes sense for us. Clearly both of us have a 8958 to fill out .Do they have to be mirror images of each other, or am I missing something here again. Do I, for example in box 1, sum up our W2 wages and divide by 2 , or do I put our actual individual different W2 wages to reflect the reality of our separate returns.
