Married Filing Separately

$250-$450 Additional fees apply if additional forms are needed. Married filing separately is a tax status used by married couples who choose to record their incomes, exemptions, and deductions on separate tax returns.
Some couples might benefit from filing separately, especially when one spouse has significant medical expenses or miscellaneous itemized deductions.
However, filing separately means potentially not being able to take advantage of certain tax benefits offered exclusively to joint filers.
