Re: Married

You are allowed to file by yourself even if you are married. However, I would add an item of consideration to the previous responses. If you have any joint debts with your wife or if your wife is a co-signer on any loan for you, then she will still be responsible for those debts.

Give me a call at (847) 223-4410 to discuss this further.

Very truly yours,

Thaddeus J. Hunt
