What address goes on a joint return if spouses are in two states?
My spouse and I are going to be divorced in 2018 but as of 12/31/17 we are still married and we will file joint returns for 2017. In addition, I moved my permanent residence from GA to MD in September, 2017. My spouse remained in GA for all of 2017. I know we file a joint federal return, but should I use my MD address or our GA address - where my spouse still lives today. How should I answer the state resident questions? I have GA income and MD income and my MD employer sent my W2 to me with my MD address on it, of course. My spouse has only GA income. We do not itemize. Will TT automatically create part year resident forms for the state returns even though I was the only one who was a part year resident? Do I do the GA state first?
