How does it work when filing under new marital status while spouse lives in a different country?
			
				
					
					
						My husband and I recently got married near the end of last year, November 2022. I have since updated my marital status and last name legally, however, I realize it makes taxes a little more difficult this year. 
I am a Canadian citizen living in Canada and my husband is an American citizen living in the US. I make no US income and he makes no Canadian income.
Can I claim any spousal benefits or no since he doesn't make any Canadian income?
How do I go about filing my taxes with this information?
