[quote=Anonymous]Marriage bonus? Hahahahahaha. I earn 225k. DH earns 60-75k. If we were not married, we would pay less in taxes. Because we are married, I pay the same rate I would have as a single, but he pays a much higher rate. We know this is true bc our accountant explains it to us. The idea that couples like us get a marriage bonus is ludicrous. Because of OP's husband's high income, she will lose a very high percentage of her salary to taxes. Same thing happens to my DH. And FWIW, any assumption that we qualify for lots of deductions is crap - many deductions phase out at higher incomes, and we are employees, so no write-offs or cap gains for us.[/quote]
