You can file "married-filing jointly".
The W-4 form is only a decision of how taxes will be withheld from your pay. It doesn't require you to file your taxes the same way. |

Yes, you can file married jointly. You must file as married, and jointly works out best for about 99 percent of all married couples.
Just go to one of the online tax prep sites and start filling out your forms. You'll find out exactly how much your refund is going to be. |

Yes you ca file married filing joint and you should. What he claims on his w4 does not have to be claimed on the tax return. He should not be claiming head of household and four on his w4 because it could cause you to owe if enough is not withheld. The most he should claim is married and two.

He is NOT head of household, he is married - HofH is a status for unmarried people who are supporting a dependent and meet some other qualifications.
You can file a joint return.
He's OK at least for federal this year, since having to much taken out for most of the year more than made up for having too little taken out later. But he needs to change asap to married/3 or less, and if you start working should change to no more than 2 allowances. |

He can not file as head of household. He can only file as married filing jointly or married filing separately. He will save a lot my filing married filing jointly.

I hope this info helps!
Your filing status is important and is used for many things on your tax return, such as, your standard deduction, whether you must file a return, or determining your correct tax. It will also be used in deciding whether you qualify for deductions and credits.
Your filing status depends partly on your marital status on the last day of your tax year. If you're legally married as of December 31, you're considered married for the full year and must file as either married filing jointly or married filing separately. For federal tax purposes, a marriage means only a legal union between a man and a woman as husband and wife.

Yes you can and should file jointly. What he put on his is W-4 at work is just to tell the employer how much they should be taking out of each check for taxes. Even though he started having a lot less taken out in October, it was only for three months of the year so you will probably get a good refund based on paying more than necessary for the first 9 months.
If he leaves it the way it is, you have to realize that your future refunds will be a lot smaller. |
