NO
No. If you are Married Filing Separately, then you only can claim your personal exemption. Your wife's personal exemption only can be claimed by her if you're Married Filing Separately. Your spouse, whether filing jointly or separately, can't be considered your dependent.
No. If you're Married Filing Jointly, then you're allowed one personal exemption for you and one exemption for your husband. You can't claim your spouse as a dependent. Even if you're working and your spouse isn't, you can't claim your spouse as a dependent because you're allowed to claim two personal exemptions total for the two of you as a married couple filing jointly.
No she would not qualify for the HOH filing status because she has to have a qualifying blood related dependent that she would be claiming on her income tax return to qualify for the HOH filing status
You don't claim a spouse as a dependent. If you are married you have only two option to legally file your taxes. These are Married Filing Joint and Married Filing Separately. Married Filing Jointly is where you file together and you don't file a spouse as a dependent but you still receive all benefits as if they were a dependent. You will get a higher Standard Deduction and get two exemptions plus any other dependents you may have. Married Filing Separately requires both of you to file the same way and each has to enter the other spouses social security number on their return. You can't file the spouse as a dependent this way.
For the US Citizen or the fiancee? The foreign fiancee does not need to have a job waiting in the US for them. In fact, they can not work until they have applied for a temporary work permit once they are in the US. The US Citizen would not need to have a job necessarily, but when filing for a K1 fiancee visa, they need to be able to prove that they meet the financial requirements on an affidavit of support for their foreign fiancee. If they can't then they need a co-sponsor who can prove that they can meet these requirements, and are willing to support the foreign spouse.
No not as a dependent. On the married filing joint income tax return the is an exemption on the 1040 tax form the same as the taxpayer.
If you're Married Filing Jointly, then you're allowed one personal exemption for you and one exemption for your husband. You can't claim your spouse as a dependent. Even if you're working and your spouse isn't, you can't claim your spouse as a dependent because you're allowed to claim two personal exemptions for the two of you as a married couple filing jointly.
You may never claim your spouse as a dependent. You may, however, claim a standard exemption for your spouse if she does not have to file and you are not filing jointly (and as long as no one else is claiming her as a dependent).
