Married filing separate

My spouse and I legally separated last September (2019). We are filing married separate, do I HAVE to give him my SS#?

State tax filing

Yes, that is a requirement written into the tax code when filing separately.

Yes that is correct.  Unless you live in a community property state, then it gets more complex.

 

See this TurboTax website for filing separately in a community property state - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/married/help/married-filing-separately-in-community-property-state...
