[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's per family, as PPs have noted. If you file separately on the same return, which we always do because the tax owed winds up being lower, you can still claim the full amount if you have two separate accounts -- you each put in $4,000 and each claim the full deduction. (I am not a tax attorney, or an attorney of any kind, so maybe take this advice for what it is, i.e., an Internet stranger's random opinion, but TurboTax has never given me a hassle filing that way, nor has the D.C. government.)[/quote] Do you file separately for DC only and then jointly for federal taxes? I also found that filing separately is better for us in DC, but definitely not better federally. [/quote] Yes--you can do MFJ for federal and separate for DC. Have done this for years.[/quote]
