Hello, All

My spouse, and I are going through a legal separation… I was wondering, are we able to still file income taxes together?

Thanks  
Allan.

Yes, if you are separated, you can still file jointly if you are married at the end of the tax year.

As I stated earlier, you can file income taxes if you are still married at the end of the tax year.
