My thought was to run them both ways to see which produces the best result. My concern is protecting my spouse and any financial improvement/assets that have occurred since the discharge. In Idaho, they have the right to look at the returns two years post discharge, which I believe in this case would qualify my 2012 and 2013 returns. 2012, the year of filing and discharge was (obviously horrible AND I owed the state and the feds), 2013 was better financially PLUS I got married. Rationally I know that what happened before the marriage (i.e. the filing and discharge of the 7) should not impact my spouse, but I want to do what is best for both of us. Thus the posted question. Thank you for your response.
