Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@Bsch4477  filing MFS is for personal reasons. we live together. 

 

@VolvoGirl  I never said, my son is tax exempt because he has low income. He is tax exempt because he works for university.

 

No one can claim my son. so I don't need to check that box as you mentioned. my husband has high tax balance due so I file separate to get refund, otherwise IRS will eat up my refund to pay his balance

 

my only question was my son who has more then $4700 w2 income, does he needs to file his return separate due to fact he has income higher than $4200? (limit for 2023 for children)
