<prompt> Human: I married my husband in June 2015 and we are filing income taxes this week. I make 38K and he makes 53K. Should we file income tax together? He bought a house in his name in Feb 2015 before we got married. I have student loans, he doesnt. Should we file separately or together?EDIT: Update - We had to pay : at least it was less than 300. But when you add tax prep fees from HR block of 600, we still got bit.  <response>: I generally suggest that married people should plan to file jointly.
