Life goes on while we are hurt and in chaos. Does anyone have any thoughts about taxes with a stbx. Have you been advised to file jointly or separately? I am not sure I have heard anyone talk about it .

What ever you decide make sure that you have it in writing that your STBX agrees.

STBX and I filed jointly, because we'll owe a lot more separately than we do together. I'm making sure (legally) he doesn't try to weasel out. That's all you can do. It's actually to both our benefit to do this, though. So hopefully it will all go smoothly.
