I got married in 2021 do I have to file jointly

No, you can also file as married filing separately. Filing jointly is best for most couples but in certain circumstances married filing separately will result in an enhanced return.

You have to file as either Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separate. You cannot file as single if you were married on Dec 31, 2021.
