if you are legally srperated are you still considered married and can yoy still file taxes jointly

If you are separated, you can file "married filing separate" or you can file "married filing joint." In most cases it is not a good idea to file a joint tax return with a soon to ex-spouse. You can learn more about the two different filing statuses by going to the IRS website at www.irs.gov. You can also speak with your divorce attorney about this matter.
