State tax filing

Two things to be aware of:

 

The filing status you use on your W-4 is strictly for tax withholding purposes.  You are not obligated to use the same filing status on your actual tax return that you used on your W-4.

 

Arizona is a community property state.  If you file MFS in AZ, you must split your wife's income between your two AZ returns.
