Married Filing Separately

If you are married and you file a separate return, keep in mind that you must be consistent in claiming the standard deduction or itemized deductions. In other words, if your spouse itemizes deductions, then you also must itemize and cannot claim the standard deduction, even if your total itemized deductions are actually less than the standard deduction available to married persons filing separately.
