Choice Of Right Return
Can Bring Tx Savings

II husband and wife file
separately, both must have in
come under the laws Of their
state. Many states have COM
munity property laws where the
wife has half the family income
even though she earns nothing
herself. In these states. where
expenses are paid from COM
munity income. the deductions
may be split equally between
man and wife. In all cases
where husband and wife file
separate returns, II one itemizes
the deductions. the other must
also itemize.
II you file separately you may
use either the form 1910 or the
l040A. depending on how you
qualify as outlined in the pre-
vious article.
Two Rare Exceptions
There are normally Just two
situations in which married
couples can benefit by filing
separately instead Of jointly.
Both are comparatively rare.
II both husband and wife are
working. and both had capital
losses Of $1,000 or more, II
might pay them TO file sepa-
rately. The law provides that
no more than $1,000 In capital
losses may be deducted on any
one return. BY filing separately,
they could get q total deduction
Of $4,000.
The second situation involves
medical expenses. Suppose that
the husband had an adjusted
gross income Of $4,000 and no
medical bills. and that the wife
had an adjusted gross income
Of $1,000. with medical bills Of
$500.
The law provides that you can
deduct only those medical and
dental costs which exceed 3 per
cent Of your adjusted gross in
come. II this couple filed joint
ly they would be able to deduct

only everything over $3.50 Is
per cent Of their combined SIS
0O0). or a deduction OF $50.
However. II the wife filed sepa-
rately. she could deduct every
thing over $3.50 Is per cent OF
her $4,000. or a deduction Of
$3.50.
Even so. in practically every
case the advantages Of splitting
income with a joint return out
weighs any savings made by
separate reporting OF medical
and dental deductions.
Dual Income Unnecessary
A husband and wife may file
q Joint return and get the ad-
vantage Of the lower tax rates
even II one Of them had no
income during the year. Both
husband and wife must sign
the joint return. and 1t must
include all the income earned
by both Of them. You can file
q joint return II you were mar
ried any time during the year.
and remained married for the
balance Of the year.
The joint return Is a finan-
cial boon to most married
couples because Of the way the
tax rate goes up as income in
creaseS-not because you pay
on any less income. In effect.
the Joint income is split into
two equal parts and the tax is
found for one Of the parts. The
tax Is then doubled. Your total
tax. then. Is the combined tax
on the two halves. usually con-
siderably smaller than 1t would
be at the tax rate on the total
income.
II your husband or wife died
any time during l957--even on
the first day Of the year--you
can still file a Joint return and
claim an exemption for your
deceased spouse. In general. you
file just as you would have had
your spouse lived through the
year.
II your husband or wife died
during 1885 or 1856 you still
can get a tax break from Uncle
Sam II you meet certain. quail
ifications. That brings us to the
special joint return for certain
recent widows and widowers.
This return cannot be filed
on the short and easy form
l040A. you must use form 1910.
On the return you claim only
your own exemption and de-
ductions. but you use schedule
two on page IL Of the instruc-
tons In figuring your tax and
thus you get the benefit OF the
split income provisions.
Providing that your spouse
died at any time during 1855 or
1856. you get this tax break II:
You have not remarked
through the end of 1857 III you
have. Of course. you can file
jointly with your new spouse) !:
You were entitled to file
jointly with the deceased
spouse at the time OF death
the or she was not a nom
resident alien. etc.: and
Since that death you have
maintained a home which is
the principal living place Of a
child or stepchild for whom
you are entitled to claim a
dependency exemption.
II your spouse died earlier
than In 1855, you may stu get
a tax break II you qualify as n
special head Of household"
This return. which can be
made only on the form 1910. is
for single. divorced or legally
separated persons who main-
tain a household. II also APP
plies to anyone married during
1857 TO a nonresident alien.
II you qualify as a "head OF
household" your tax bill will be
lower than II you fled sepa-
rately. Your special rates will
be found in schedule three on
page II Of the instruction book
let that comes with form 1910.
You will note that they are
lower than those in schedule
one for single taxpayers.
