How do I determine if I have community property adjustments or income?

I am married filing seperate

If you live in a community Property State, most income you earn is split evenly between you and your spouse.

If there is income relating to something before marriage, such as a rental purchased before marriage, that income might belong only to the owner of the property.

Self-Employed taxpayers split the net income, but not the Self-Employment tax.

Different states have different rules.
