Social Security and taxes

I have recieved SSDI for almost 6 years now and I just got married this year.

Does anyone know how we go about filing our taxes? I have never had to file taxes on what I got unless I made wages during the year.

My husband works full time. Can he claim me as a dependant on his taxes? Should we file jopintly or singly?

Anyone know anything about this? I have tried looking this up and can't find the answers anywhere..

hmmmm i think you would make out better filing married,,you really are still only claiming his income but i dont think you can be a dependent,,you cant claim a spouse as a dependent

You will do "Married filing Joint". 

A spouse is not a dependant...even if they don't have an income.
