Most tax professionals assume joint filing is the default for married couples, but the tax code actually says the opposite. Jeremy Wells explores the surprising reality that married filing separately is technically the default status, requiring both spouses to elect joint filing under IRC Section 6013. He breaks down the key disadvantages of separate returns—from reduced credits to income limitations—while explaining legitimate scenarios where paying extra tax through separate filing can lead to better overall financial outcomes, particularly with student loan repayment strategies.
