the other day, a friend asked me a tax question (he was using Turbo Tax). for some reason, TT was telling him that since his wife didn't have income, he should file as Married Filing Separate.
I normally don't comment about other software packages, but taxpayers need to know what info goes into a tax return. Had my friend not spoken to me, they would have paid significantly more in taxes and owed money. They ended up getting a refund
