Just as the title says, my husband is probably the worst U.S. citizen out there and expects me to look into and know everything related to this journey, even when we were filing for the K-1 I was the one who did everything... 

Leaving that small rant aside, what would be the consequences for him if he were to do this?

It’s not that hard to find the punishments from the IRS. He has two options (assuming he doesn’t qualify for “head of household” status):

- married filing jointly

- married filing separately

 

why does he want to file as single?

Relationship:     First met 2015, Married since Oct 2016

2016 Sep/Oct - Third trip to China (10 days) this time with my parents so that my parents could meet him and his mom, along with lots of sightseeing and food (i'm sure you've picked up on a trend by now :D)

2016 Oct - At the end of the time in China my parents, myself, and Xuan all traveled to Canada (7 days) so that we could get married, but unfortunately his mom couldn't come along with us.
