asked

I filed as single last year and got married in August 2018. I legally changed my name with the SSA but didn't inform the IRS. My W-2s have my maiden name, and I plan to file jointly with my husband for tax year 2017. Should I use my maiden name or married name when filing, and is it advisable to cross out my maiden name on the W-2 and write in my married name since the SSA has my married name in its database?
