Best Answer

If you are considered single for tax purpose when the year ends, you can file as single.

Even if you get your final divorce decree at 11:59 pm on December 31, you can file as single. And, even if you are married, you don't HAVE to file jointly...you may use the "married filing separately status" (which is different than the "single" status)...and change it every year, at your election.

How many years do you have to file your income taxes if you are getting a refund?

It doesn't matter if you receive an income tax refund or not. The fact is is you worked and had federal and state taxes taken out you would need to file your taxes every year. However, much depends on your filing status (single, married, etc) and how much you made that year on whether you would file. To be on the safe side if you had federal and state taken out of your checks you should file.
