[quote=Anonymous]I've been married for 2 years and for the second year in a row, I (along with my husband) owe federal and state taxes. I got a decent refund while I was single and so did he. Last year (Ist year of marriage), we filed jointly and ended up owing. It was a highly annoying sticker shock but we paid it and adjusted our W4s to have our employers deduct more money through the year.

Imagine my chagrin yesterday when turbo tax says that we owe AGAIN this year and this year's bill is even higher than last year.  That's it!, I want a divorce, this is ridiculous. Neither one of us are high earners and we have a little girl so it's not like we are living high on the hog as it is. But to have to fork out money that we don't have to pay a yearly tax bill is not something I want to deal with yearly.

I (and I suspect my husband) was perfectly fine being unmarried in a relationship. We only got married because of our child, whom, Uncle Sam now says that we can only claim a minimal child credit deduction for because we 'earn too much'. Whaaaaatt?

I am filing for divorce. This is bullshit. [/quote]
