Figure it both ways to see which is better. I suspect joint, but there may be cases where seperate is better, or if you think your spouse has a judgement against them that would cause any expected refund to be intercepted.

Use a good tax program and run the numbers both ways...choose the option that works best.

Definitely joint. You will be in a better tax bracket.
