File federal joint but state seperate
I have viewed several questions in the TurboTax community forum on the subject of filing a married joint federal return and separate for state. One of the responses had the suggestion of making 2 sets of forms with TT then select the joint for the Fed from one and then select joint for state with the other. A coupe of questions on this
1. I live in Maryland which allows a separate married status. Does Maryland allow sperate filing status when the federal was filed joint?
2. Using the suggested 2 account method ( one for joint and one for separate) will the change in federal status put incorrect info ( i.e. deductions, credits) into state return?
3. Is there a way in TT to access and change just the state filing status? I’m using TT Deluxe.
