My wife, Christina Dial died on 2/17/2019. Do I still file jointly?

I'm so sorry for your loss.

Yes, if your spouse was still alive as of December 31, 2018, you should file your 2018 return jointly with your late spouse.

Since your spouse died in 2019, you'll also file jointly, in 2019, with your late spouse unless you remarry in 2019.

Additional information: How should I file my return if my spouse recently died?

Still have questions?
