Filing status?
I have been married for only 4 months in 2007, (date August 31, 2007). My new husband did not earn over $1,000 for the year, and will not file. what filing status can I use as I want to take the education credit for myself and my daughter.

If your husband will only be making minimal money in 2008, two or three thousand, claim M-3 (married 3 exemptions)
If he will be making substantially more, or an amount equal to you, I suggest either Married 1 or Married 2. There are other items which can impact this, such as home mortgage interest, medical bills, etc. You can look at the instructions to form W-4, which is the form you use to claim deductions or visit the irs website, www.irs.gov for complete and additional information. Because of the graduated tax rate and the impact that has on married couples, both you and your husband should not both claim your daughter because you run the risk of underwithholding

Your choices are married filing a joint return or married filing separately. You can NOT file as head of household. But filing a joint return will work out better than head of household would have anyway.

Definitely a joint return with your new husband. You'll both have to sign the return. You'll get an exemption for each of you, and $10,700 for a standard deduction.

And ignore the idiots who have answered this question wrong. I don't know why so many people who haven't a clue what they're talking about insist on answering what is actually a fairly simple, straightforward question, and giving wrong information.

You can file MFJ or MFS. You should work up the numbers both ways, but MFJ is best for the vast majority of couples.

You cannot file HOH, as you did not live apart from your husband during the last 6 months of the year.

Your marital status for the year is determined on December 31, 2007. The IRS treats you as married for the entire year.

Your filing status choices are Married Filing Separately or Married Filing Jointly.

A taxpayer filing a Married Filing Separate return cannot receive an education credit or the Earned Income Credit. So, your only optiion in order to receive the credits is a Married Filing Jointly return.

Although your husband is not required to file, by filing a joint return with you, you will not only be able to receive the credits for education and your child, you will receive a larger standard deduction and one more exemption. This more than makes up for the additional income on a joint return.

Taxreff is the only correct answer so far.

You cannot file HOH because your husband lives with you.
You cannot claim his exemption because he had income.
Husbands are NEVER dependents.
If you want to claim the education credit, you *must* file MFJ.

If your combined income is less than $20,900, you won't get to use the education credit anyway.

You have a lot of options, one is to claim him as a dependant. I did this last year on my wife. I would reccomend you going to a Liberty Tax Service office, You could also go to H&R block but they are not as good.

Good luck
