    Filing separate returns, deductibles/credit/interest reporting on one spouse
    When filing separate, can one spouse report all interest/gain/lose and claim all deductibles, credits if the other one agrees?

    Each spouse must report his/her own income and deductions. Also if one spouse itemizes deductions, other must also do this.
    Or file joint return.
