I got married January 12, 2017, do I do anything different when I file for 2016? Should I select the option that I am married when it asks for changes?

No, you do not put anything about being married on your 2016 return. You were not married in 2016. But best wishes!

I just got married and am not sure if my wife and I should file taxes jointly or separately. Who should I reach out to find what's best for me and my wife?
