why does the ex have to see the tax returns. ask a tax attorny. my husbands ex doesn't see hisCan you file seperate tax returns if you are married?
Yes you can file seperate but you will end up paying more taxes or get a smaller refund.
Yes, you can. There is a filing status called ';Married Filing Separate';. If you're considering this option i would consult a tax preparer at least if not a tax attorney.
You can each file your return as married filing separately. It will probably cost you more in total taxes to do it that way. Depending on your circumstances, it might only be a few dollars or might be much more than that.
Yes, but you will probably end up paying more taxes than if you filed ';jointly';.
Your husband should check with his divorce lawyer, usually the ';COURT'; verifies the husbands' income (for support issues). Once divorced, the ';ex'; does not really have the right to INVADE your privacy.
Hope this helps.
You can file as Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separately.
So you can file separate tax returns as Married Filing Separately. But you may end up paying more total taxes than filing as Married Filing Jointly.
If you have income and your spouse does not have income or has a very little income, then it is better to file as Married Filing Jointly. If both of you have almost equal income, then it won't make much difference. Also may credits and deductions are not available if you file Married Filing Separately. So normally you should file as Married Filing Jointly, unless there is a compelling reason to file otherwise.
You can if you want but it would probably be better to file jointly. After the ex sees ';his return'; you can amend them to joint.
