"Married persons. You are married for the whole year if you are separated but you have not obtained a final decree of divorce or separate maintenance by the last day of your tax year . An interlocutory decree is not a final decree." Determine your tax filing status by consulting the IRS website at: https://www.irs.gov/publications/p504/ar02.html#en_US_2014_publink1000175820 .
