Tax Filing Separately
Question: How much worse off are Filing Taxes Separately when married?
My bf and I are probably going to get married this year, but all his bills, support, etc are done through his business. I prefer to do my own taxes and would rather not have my stuff done through the business.
So what kind of penalties would I face should I choose to file separately next year ?
Would I have to do anything “special” this year to prepare for a change in filing status?
**Just like to be prepared

Answer: it depends on your situation and income. If you file separately you lose the earned income deduction and a few others as well. If you are in a community property state and you file separately you must add together both your incomes and divide by 2 to get your income for taxes.

Must File Tax Return 2008
Question: Filing income tax in Quebec?
Regarding filing taxes with Revenue Canada:
I’m filing my taxes online; must I enter both my T4 and Relevé 1 forms? (It asks me which forms I need; T4 and RL-1 are seperate checkboxes). I originally filed my taxes with just my T4 and ended up with a very low return, and after entering the RL-1 it more than doubled. I’m worried I’m just filling in the numbers twice.Regarding filing taxes with Revenu Quebec:
I am a Manitoba resident living in Quebec since July 2008. Therefore, I imagine I am not yet a “QC resident” as I have not lived here for a full year. I resided here Dec 31 2008; must I file taxes with Revenu Quebec as well?
Answer: You are a resident of the province where you lived on 31 December. If you are a resident of Quebec you must file a TP-1-D-V
http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/formspubs/t1gnrl/menu-eng.html
“Select the province or territory in which you resided on December 31, 2008.”
T4s are given by employers outside Quebec, RL-1s are given inside Quebec. You enter both forms on your T1 AND the TP-1-D-V

Taxable Income On Federal Return
Question: Should I have a 1099-G form for 2007 Federal Tax Refunds?
Can’t find one. Are federal tax refunds from 2007 taxable as income on my 2008 tax returns? If I can’t find a 1099-G, I should just be able to enter in the amount of my 2007 federal Tax Refund, correct?
Answer: You won’t get a 1099-G for federal refund, only state and local tax refund. You don’t need to report your 2007 tax refund as an income item on your 2008 tax return.
