Too many variables to tell. You should fill out the forms both ways and file whichever way comes out best for you.

There are a lot of things that go into this...I think it matters if you made a certain amount of money, or if you are still in school, but I think generally it is better to file jointly which you could do if you were married on Dec 31...as long as it is in the calender year

Since you married during the calendar year, you can file Married, Filing Jointly.

You can file either way, but I would suggest that if you have the forms and the time to do both and see which way gives you the best results. Combining your incomes together could put you into a higher tax bracket, but with 2 dependence it might work out okay.

first find out if its allowed to file jointly for that short of a period . then do the math for both and see which gives the bigger refund and go with that one.

You should file according to your status on December 31st.

You have two options, although legally you should file MFJ. It is usually most beneficial if you do, especially if you have dependants.

Separately would be the best and easiest way to go.
