    Can I refile my tax from married filing seperatly to married filing jointly
    Hi
    Me and my wife filed taxs returns, married filing seperatly. My wife has worked only 6 months. We would have benefitted if we have filed jointly.

    My question is can we refile the taxes again as married jointly. And cancel the existing filing.

    Look forword to your answers.

    Please help me out

    Thanks

    Yes, you can file amended tax return. Both must amend the returns.
