As you were married on the last day of 2019, your only choice is Married filing Jointly or Married filing Separately.

 

In almost all situations, it is more beneficial to file Married Filing Jointly than Married Filing Separately.

Please read this TurboTax Help topic for more information.

 

If your husband owes child support, you should file form 8379 - Injured spouse to prevent the IRS from offsetting your share of the refund.

 

Please read this TurboTax Help topic on How to file form 8379.
