Question

My husband and I separated and we didn't file any separation paperwork. We also filed our taxes separate also. How do I file this year as marital status.

If you were still legally married in 2019 then you file your tax returns as either Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separately.  If you can agree the best way to file when married is jointly.

 

Or if eligible you may qualify for Head of Household.  See the TurboTax support FAQ for HOH when married - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/married/help/can-a-married-person-claim-head-of-household-filing-status/01/26366
