Question: Marriage and Social Security?
!!PLEASE HELP!!
Okay, I just got married last week and I’v already been to the DMV and recieved my new drivers license with my new last name. I’m debating on wether or not I should change my name with the social security office. I work and I file taxes each year. My new husband works, but because he is a barber and he gets paid cash, he does not file taxes.
If I decide report my marriage to the social security office, thus changing my last name with them…..wil the fact that he doesn’t file taxes affect me when I file my taxes as “married” instead of “single” like I have done in the past?????PLEASE HELP
Answer: i don’t really know but it sounds a bit dodgy. I would do things right, you could be landed with a big tax bill in the future.

Filing Taxes Married Vs Single
Question: Filing taxes: Married filing seperate vs. Joint?
For the last many years I have received a full refund on federal and state income taxes due to my numerous deductions (HOH, 2 little ones, myself, etc.). Now I’m married. What’s the best way? Joint or seperate? He’s a farmer – he’s at a loss this year due to the drought and will not be able to show any profit. Will I still get back a full refund if I file seperate or will I lose that since I’m not longer head of household and single?
Answer: (It took me several minutes before I finally inferred Head of Household; additionally that you’re female.)
Generally, filing joint (as opposed to separate) is the more advantageous way to go; farmers, I think, enjoy additional advantages which I read about, but can’t cite from memory.
What I would suggest is you test each filing status, trying the joint status first, believing that that is more advantageous to you. Without knowing more details it’s hard (to me) to project what your bottom line would be. (and I don’t want your personal details; I have enough details to manage — tax wise)
I’d definitely suggest you get Publication 17 (free) from the IRS — the booklet that covers most everything. There’s some probability you could get all your withholding back and even have a loss carry forward. It will hinge on all the particulars/numbers.
Good Luck; Happy New Year!
