Question
Do I Have to Use the Same Filing Status For My Colorado State Return As I Used For My Federal?

Answer

You must file using the same filing status on both your federal and Colorado income tax returns. Parties to a Civil Union should refer to federal tax law to determine the correct filing status. For Married Filing Joint, you must list the taxpayer names in the same order on both the federal and Colorado returns. For married filing separate, do not list your spouse’s name or SSN on the return.
