You can, but you will just end up having to send in an amended return when you get the second W-2. If you have tried to get the second W-2 from the employer and been unsuccessful, and it is after February 14th, you can file with Form 4852, which substitutes for the missing W-2. Use the best available information to fill it out; usually, that would be your final pay stub for the year from that employer.
There is not a minimum income one must have in order to file taxes. Anyone can file taxes if they want.
If you are married, you cannot (and should not) file single. Your choices are Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separately. The only time I usually see a Married Filing Separate return is either if the spouses, as a rule, just keep all of their finances separate, or if one of them owes taxes. Remember if you owe taxes the IRS will keep your refunds to apply to that balance due, so if only one of you owes taxes you can file Married Filing Separately and the one of you that does not owe taxes can still get their refunds. Also if you are going to owe on a tax return and file that return as Married Filing Separate, and then later die, your widow will not be responsible for the taxes.
Every year, thousands of people find themselves unprepared to file their taxes. If you are one of them and simply fail to file your taxes, then you will have to face the wrath of the IRS. Instead of facing the wrath of the IRS, you should file a special form and receive a legal extension period for filing your taxes. You can file the Form 4868 and receive an automatic 6-month extension on the filing of your taxes. The only caveat with this option is that you must file for an extension by the due date set forth by the IRS.
You do not have to file a joint tax return if you are married. Each year you may elect to file separate or joint. If you file separate, the children you have can only be claimed by one spuse, but the children may be split between the two returns if you choose. Other things like mortgage interest paid can only be claimed by one spuuse. By filing separate you will generally owe and pay more taxes than filing Joint.
To file self employment taxes you must complete a Schedule SE form and attach it to your 1040 form. If you have any employees then you also have to pay employment taxes such as Social Security and Medicare Taxes.

Yes, the executor must file taxes. That is one of their responsibilities to the estate.

Not really. You can give up owning your house, or not work. If your income is less than minimum, ($3,300) You do not have to file. If you get married, and only your spouse works, file seperatly so only one of you has to pay. This way you escape most taxes(i.e. income tax).

Whether you can claim the children on your taxes depends on your divorce agreement. Only one parent can claim per year, in any case.

It can change every year....but he can be claimed on only one persons return.
Yes, you do, if your employer prepares one for you.
