The article discusses a letter from a spouse facing unfair tax obligations due to their husband's increased earnings. Despite previously splitting expenses evenly, the dramatic rise in the husband's salary has made the couple's tax situation increasingly unequal. The advice given suggests that the spouse consider filing taxes separately to avoid conflict and ensure a fairer financial arrangement. The columnist emphasizes that a pragmatic approach is essential, especially in married couples where income equality is disrupted by one partner's significant financial gain.
Oh. Hell. No. Your husband is not over here making all this money and making you pay his taxes on it!
So until he comes to his senses, you are filing taxes separately. Yes, even if you are married, you can file by yourself.
The next time this comes up, tell him you've looked into filing taxes separately, and you will be moving forward with this course of action.
This way, you can each pay what you owe without having to fight about it.
