Marriage cannot ever increase your tax liability.
- actuator 4y agoYeah, that's what my assumption was. US has the best tax situation for married people that I know of.
- alistairSH 4y agoYep. The tax brackets mostly eliminate the "marriage penalty", though there are some true edge cases that might make filing separately better. Generally speaking, most married couples do the same or better by filing together.
- dmitrygr 4y agoReally? Please go figure out how what you said is true for a couple both making 500k/year Can’t. You’re just wrong.
