Am not sure if my spouse also submitted W-4 in the same way ( i had reminded him- he had not done that last year and we received less then expected refund - so we decided to file our own taxes and not to blame each other why we received less refund). In most articles on this matter - they advise to file jointly as you save more. But saving more money is not always the purpose. | |
