MFS will phase you out of several things completely. Notably Roth IRA income limits are very harsh for MFS. It is almost never a better option.

That one is particularly fucked up! What else does it phase you out of? I’ve reviewed for my personal case and found absolutely no difference. We both have small businesses as LLCs so it is cleaner to file separately, and had no loss in tax implications.
