My spouse lives in another state

If I live and work in PA but my spouse got job mid year in NC so now lives in NC, can we file married filing jointly for FED?

Yes. State of residency does not affect your filing status. You can still file jointly on your federal return.

Yes, still file married filing jointly. It should be the better tax advantage.
