If you file separately and don't qualify for the stimulus payment you already received, you will not have to pay it back. You should realize that (stimulus payments aside) you almost always pay more in tax when you are married and file separately than if you file jointly. I recommend you calculate your taxes both ways (MFJ and MFS) before you file. This is much easier to do using TurboTax Desktop. For more information on the CD/download version of TurboTax go to:
