Direktor | Can you file as married filing jointly and still claim your spouse as a dependant?Will I get both deductions? |
|
|

If you file married you get two standard deductions one for you and one for your wife, then one for any other dependents you have. You don't claim your wife as a dependent. |

your spouse is not considered to be a dependent. you would get a $3,300 exemption EACH for you, your spouse, and any dependents. |
|

Violation Notice
|
If you file jointly, you can not use your spouse as a dependant. |
|

Lori W
|
Ifyou file jointly, you get 2 exemptions. A dependant would be a child in most cases and you get 1 exemption per child. Each person in your family is only allowed 1 exemption unless they meet special criteria (ex: blind). |

Be careful about the advice you receive on here.
To answer your question, no you cannot file a joint return, with one of the spouses listed as a dependent. While it is generally better to file jointly, there ARE some situations where a taxpayer files Married Filing Separately, and can claim a spouse as a dependent if he/she did not work at all. This is COMPLETELY legal, and is usually used in cases where the spouses don't want to be jointly liable for each other's finances. As I said, that is only Married Filing Separately, and the dependent spouse cannot have any income. Also, it's often a better financial decision to file a joint return if both spouses are willing. |

If you EVER claim your spouse as a dependent, you did somthing wrong. If you are asking about EXEMPTIONS (people are not deductions), you get one for yourself, ONE for your spouse and one for each dependent. |
|

No, a spouse is never a dependent, but if you file jointly you will get an exemption for each of you. An exemption subtracts $3300 from your income before figuring your tax, whether the exemption is for yourself, your spouse, or a dependent. |
