If I file as married filing separately, does my spouse need to file if there’s no income?
If one spouse uses “married filing separately” as the filing status, the other spouse must also use this filing status. The other spouse must file if his/her gross income is more than a set amount. For 2017 returns, this amount is $4,050.
