When you file a joint return, you and your spouse will each receive the $4050 personal exemption, plus the married filing jointly standard deduction of $12,600 (add $1250 for each spouse over the age of 65).&nbsp; You are eligible for more credits including education credits, earned income credit, child and dependent care credit, and a larger income limit to receive the child tax credit.</P> Sat, 01 Jun 2019 03:08:34 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/married-filing-jointly-is-usually-better-even-if-one-spo/01/82489#M35195 xmasbaby0 2019-06-01T03:08:34Z
