State tax filing

No, if you file Married Filing Jointly for your Federal return, unless your spouse is working/earning in a different US state than you, your spouse would be considered "domiciled" in the same state as you if also filing jointly for the state. 

 

Georgia requires you to file Married Filing Jointly since that is how you filed the Federal return. Both you and your spouse would be considered residents for the Georgia return.
