Actually, married, filing separately is the default filing status. However, it is very unusual for it to be beneficial (although as one poster has commented it works for some). Tax software can compute the most beneficial filing status in an instant, provided all the income and deductions are entered correctly (right down to identifying which spouse gets which - thats essential to an accurate comparison).

Yes but I would check with your account. In our case we get more back if we file together.

Yes -- especially if one or both of you have businesses and you don't want to be involved in his/her business activities.
