Whats Your Take on Filing Status?

I’ve been diving into my taxes lately and I keep running into the term “filing status.” It feels like everyone has a different opinion on what’s best or most advantageous. I’m curious how you all choose your filing status and what factors play into your decision. Do you go for single, married filing jointly, or something else? Has it made a noticeable impact on your tax return? I’ve read some posts that say you can save a lot by filing jointly, but there’s so much to consider, especially if there are other variables like investments or side hustles involved. Would love to hear some real-life experiences or tips!
