I asked a question here, but i think i didnt explain my question properly.
I and my spose are in separate states -- so for my state taxes, could i take take two exemptions, though i am filing as married, filing separately? I understand that on federal filing, if i file as married&separate, i can get only one exemption, but my question is to do with the state, and we are not double-counting exemption on same income.
I am ofcourse only including my income, in the wages derived from my state -- similarly she counts only her income in her filing in the state she is working in, and takes 2 exemptions for her state. That way, we are not double-counting, on the same dollar of income - we are getting only 2 exemptions (being married) on each dollar of income (not 4).
