Am I qualified for "married one income" as my filing status for CA State Income Tax? Shall we file taxes together or separately?

I'm a full-time employee. My husband is a full-time student. He has student loans and a paid internship. We are not sure if filing taxes together will make it hard for him to get student loans for next year.

Filing separate for California will not make a big difference if you are residents of California and work in California because community property laws would apply and you would both have to report one half of the community income.  Student loans are not need based like grants so it will not make a big difference.
