If I was married throughout all of 2022 and just triggered a divorce process in January 2023, how do I file my taxes? As single? A married filing separately?

You were married in 2022, unless you were legally separated in 2022 then you'll be filing as either MFJ or MFS in 2022. Just make sure you're on the same page as your (soon-to-be) former spouse.

Did you guys live with each other the LAST 6 months of the year? If you guys didn’t live with each other the last 6 months of the year - you can file single. If you have kids then you can file head of household.

Thanks!

Sorry to hear this, OP. Hope it all works out.

Ideally you can file amicably as M filing J. If not, you’re MFS. Legally, as of 12/31/22 you were married, so you’re M either way for 2022. You’ll continue to be M until the divorce is finalized. Your divorce attorney (which you should definitely have) can advise you on specifics.

You cant file single
You were married..either MFJ or MFS

Directbuy 1 is partially right. if there are dependents and you lived apart for the last six months you would be “considered unmarried” and eligible to file “head of household.” If one spouse is eligible for this, the other spouse is required to file as married filing separately

1. Where do I even start?
2. What %age of income should I invest?

I hope I'm not late.

New Jersey partnership question.

Partnerships need to use market sourcing for purposes of calculating NR withholding tax (though NJ doesn't even call this withholding anymore).

However, for purposes of calculating the NJ distributive share of income, you apply Gross Income Tax (personal income tax) rules, which is 3 factor and includes COP.

If I end up with 0% apportionment under GIT and 10% apportionment under CBT (withholding tax), the partnership pays tax upfront but NRs get 100% refund?
