Married Filing Jointly, But Live Separately

I got married in 2022, but my wife and I did not live together and we still maintain separate addresses. We're filing for 2022 as Married Filing Jointly. Is it correct to file with just one address for us both, or do I need to list my wife's separate address somewhere? (TurboTax just asks for one address unless I'm missing something...) Thank you.

Yes that's ok. You should file a Joint return. Just use the address where you want any IRS or state letters to come.

The address on your tax return is where you want the IRS to send mail if they need to contact you (they don't call or email). It does not have to be a place where you or your spouse physically live, just where you want the mail to go.
