Hi,
In most cases, filing joint provides a better tax filing. Especially since there are no dependents, it makes sense to file jointly unless...there is a tax consequence that could cause a tax offset. It would not be possible to be filed as a dependent on your tax return. You are considered equal to your spouse in that respect. Your choices at present are Married filing jointly or married filing separately. Hands down, Married filing joint is best for you!
