So apparently the IRS hates you if you get married. If you get married you can usually choose to file jointly, but if you decide to file separately then you forfeit any student loan interest and other things of that nature on your taxes. Therefore it is recommended to file jointly.
New problem. When you got married you probably filled out your W-4 form incorrectly or you never changed it. Single people normally have 2 exemptions on their form. If you are married you can have 2 but it is recommended to have zero to one. Let me be clear, I recommend that you have zero. In fact I am screwed this year because I claimed 2 and this was a mistake. I should have claimed 1 or 0. I want to claim 0, but then these bastards will take out more taxes than they already do from my paycheck. That isn't cool because I already pay too much.
I hate our tax system it is beyond stupid and overly complicated for poor reasons. Fuck you IRS.
Now I have to go to a tax accountant because I used Turbo Tax and it tells me that my wife and I owe about 8K which is a load of shit. I do not owe 8K that is bullshit, the government has taxed me to hell already and I refuse to pay more. So we are filing for an extension because we are still trying to get this house. I can't alter anything right now because it will screw with my credit or something.
