If you are filing a joint return with your spouse and you have reported your combined income sources, then there should be no difference in processing time for the refund for your joint tax return.  

 

However, in the event that your spouse owes a debt that would require his tax refund to be offset by the IRS in order to pay the debt, then your tax refund will most likely be affected by filing a joint return.  If you feel that is the case, you should take a look at the following TurboTax article for some advice:
