Answer:

Statement is true

Explanation:

One is liable to pay comparatively lesser tax if filed jointly with the spouse. Filing jointly is advantageous. IRS does not force married couples to file joint returns. They have the option to file separately but filing jointly provides ta relief.

If couples decide to file jointly, spouse is responsible to pay taxes or any resultant penalties, if the other half is unable to do so. In this case, Ernie is liable to pay taxes if Bonnie to unable to pay even though she does not have any eared income but they chose to file returns jointly.
