We file with H&R Block...

So yeah, all available credits added in.

Hmmm ... I am greatly disheartened to see that Taxes were being discussed and no-one informed me.

If the above situation is true (and I'm assuming nothing given you used H&R Block) and you had to pay out lots of money with your taxes I can think of only two reasons why -

1. You are criminally underwithheld on your W-2 Pay.
2. You have your own business or other investments that generate income while not withholding and you didn't pay estimated taxes.

If you don't think either of these are true I'd suggest finding a small CPA firm and having them give your return a second look.

I'll also comment that the tax disadvantage from married couples has more or less been legislated away. The real penalties lie with Married Couples who choose to file seperately.

/CPA out ...

[ReaperCharlie]

Wait wait wait.

If I file separately from my wife, I get MORE money back?!?!

(but then the IRS will crack down on me?)

Explain please.

No, generally if you file seperately from your wife you will pay more net tax (on a Federal basis). The general reason for this is that a large number of deductions / credits / benefits that are dissallowed from Mafia Filing Seperate status. This may be offset with State advantages. For example, Ohio has a strangely graduated rate structure that generally advantages Married Taxpayers who file seperate with similar income levels.

So it generally only makes sense to file seperately if the state advantage outweighs the Federal disadvantage.

Its #2 mostly I think. We may be underwitheld but what do you mean criminally? as in we're breaking the law not witholding enough, or our jobs are breaking the law not witholding enough?

I know one exemption we get screwed out of is claiming interest on student loans. we both pay enough student loans where if we were filing single, we'd each get to claim an exemption of $2500 each, but married filing jointly, we only get the $2500 total. If we try married filing separately, we don't get to claim the interest at all, so that right there is enough to rule out filing separately as economically feasible - er, at least it was last year when I tried.

We do the H&R block online return for taxes. Should we not use that? Its never seemed right that it said we owed so much, but last year someone did look at our return (a friend of a friend who does taxes kinda thing, no fee) and said it looked right. I'd assume its still right since we're doing it the same way this year?

Taxes are frustrating. Paying them isn't the worst part, its figuring out the paperwork thats a bitch.

Hence, turbotax.com was invented! Use that and/or have MoI looking over your shoulder/Ventrilo'ing with you while you do them.
