Do you have to claim military service connected disability compensation on your tax return or is it tax free
You NEVER claim a spouse as a dependent. File a joint return.
Married Filing Jointly is usually better, even if one spouse had little or no income. When you file a joint return, you and your spouse will get the married filing jointly standard deduction of $24,000 (+$1300 for each spouse 65 or older) You are eligible for more credits including education credits, earned income credit, child and dependent care credit, and a larger income limit to receive the child tax credit.
If your spouse is receiving VA benefits they are not taxable and do not get entered on your return.
