After you file

You cannot add your BF's W-2 to your own tax return.  And...if your BF has over $4200 of income you cannot claim him.  He just files his own tax return and you file your own tax return--you are both Single--unless one of you has children--in which case the one who has children may be able to file as Head of Household.
