For option a, wouldn't that be a problem my wife is not single?
Additionally, for option b, I'm a bit confused. Would we file jointly as "Married Filing Jointly" for both our Federal and State taxes? Or would we need to each file a separate NYS return as "Married Filing Separately?"
Also, could you just clarify as to whether or not it would be permissible to ONLY file an NYS return for my wife as "Married Filing Separately" and not file one for myself?
Thank you!
