What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? WA
What are the tax filing option for legally separated couple in WA state?
Can each of them file as SINGLE?or married jointly or married separately?
If one has already filed single...can other file married jointly? I don't think so but can other file married separately?
I was researching online and found that in WA state you remain married from a tax perspective until your divorce is final, even though you're legally separated.
I want to make sure above is true for WA state ...IRS says every state if different but I cant find info on WA state.
Is this true? that means neither husband nor wife can file income tax as SINGLE?
They have to choose either married filing jointly or separately ?
