Filing joint or head of household.

My wife and I used to file joint, I am 100% VA disable and unable to work due to injury to my neck. Should we still file joint or should she file head of household? The only income I receive is monthly VA disability.

Filing joint or head of household.

Hello, you should file married filing jointly. You can only file head of household if you are not living together and have a qualifing child.

 

Filing jointly will give you the best tax outcome since your VA disability isn't taxable.
