Marriage, Newly Married and 529 plan

Howdy,

 

My wife and I were married at the end of 2019, and are both over 24. 

 

My wife is in graduate school and her mother made payments to her tuition using an established 529 plan.

 

We are confused if we can file joint married, if her mom should and could claim the 1098T/educational expenses, or if my wife would be my mother in laws dependent still since she is filing the 529 payments.

 

If it helps, my wife and I lived together all last year, and I paid for all living expenses.
