You can file separately if you think there is a financial advantage. It is rare , but under certain situations it could be beneficial. Having a joint checking & savings account is not a problem

Yes. The checking and savings accounts have nothing to do with filing your returns, except the interest made, which is usually very trivial.

If he earns 4 situations as much as you do and you're made to pay all the charges then be very careful of him and his motives considering isn't the conventional behaviour of an user-friendly husband. it may be pointless for you the two to have a joint account once you're nonetheless meant to pay the charges. you will possibly have little to put in that account and what you DO positioned it he ought to then draw out if he needed to. shop your funds (earnings) on your account and tell him you are able to desire to the two chop up the charges best down the middle or extra perfect nonetheless (because of the fact he earns extra) he could desire to pay 3 quarters and you pay one quarter of each and every outgoing. If that doesn't get him delivering some funds and seeing experience then be very careful of him and his motives. while you're making plans to have a kinfolk ask him what he intends doing once you're no longer from now on incomes or once you're having to pay extreme baby care expenses. it variety of feels to me that he's certainly one of those adult adult males (and there are a number of) who thinks that his funds is HIS (even nevertheless he does not say that) and that yours is OURS. curiously he has not at all matured and he desires to take action very rapidly or this marriage won't paintings. ensure you have this appeared after previously having a baby to him or you have gotten an fairly unhappy and disappointing existence.

Yes - my husband used to owe back child support and had his tax refund garnished and I did not want to lose mine so we filed seperately. You each will have your seperate income to report so it is usually easy. Make sure to consult a tax specialist because you may lose some beneficial write offs, etc.
