I would say yes. You are treated as a married couple, so if the debt occurred while you were together, you are both equally liable. To the IRS this doesn't mean that you each pay half, it means whoever has the money pays it all. If either is due a refund, they will take it to apply it to the debt.

Generally, the federal government does not recognize your domestic partnership. If you were legally married to someone of the opposite sex then you might be liable for that person's tax debt.

It will depend on the way the taxes were submitted. If you are not married and didn't file jointly, you don't have any liability.

Can your domestic partner add their cohabitant to their health policy in Massachusetts?

If this is a private policy that you have purchased on your own, then you can most certainly obtain domestic partner coverage, although you may have to change policies or even insurance providers. If this refers to coverage provided to you by your employer, then the answer is depends upon two factors: (1) whether your employer is willing to pay for the additional cost of coverage; and, (2) whether the current policy provides for domestic partner coverage. If the answer to both questions is yes, then it is your employer who determines what qualifies as a domestic partnership and they direct the insurance company to add your DP to the policy when you submit the applicable form.


What constitutes a domestic partnership?

A domestic partnership consists of two individuals agreeing to live together as domestic partners. The arrangement can be informal, or the couple can execute a legally binding "domestic partnership agreement" (also known as a "living together agreement"), or the couple can formally register their domestic partnership with a local or state government.Some local and state governments grant specific rights and protections to domestic partnerships if they are registered. Registration consists of appearing in person, paying a fee, presenting identification and signing a form.Some employers will grant benefits to registered domestic partners. Some employers require only that the employee and his/her domestic partner submit a notarized affidavit of domestic partnership.Characteristics of a domestic partnership vary, but they usually include these:Both domestic partners are unmarried.Neither partner has an undissolved domestic partnership with someone else.Both partners live together.Both partners share finances.Both partners are of legal age.The partners are not closely related by blood.

Are you liable for damage caused by your child at a daycare?

You are liable for anything that your child does. If the damage is normal wear and tear, it shouldn't be billed for, but if the child is throwing or breaking things on purpose, as opposed to by accident, I would certainly expect the day care to submit a bill.

No, as a non-contracted provider with Medicare, the physician is not required to submit claims on behalf of the patient. It is the patient's responsibility to submit the claim to Medicare for reimbursement. However, the physician may choose to submit the claim as a courtesy to the patient, but they are not obligated to do so.

Can you claim earned income tax credit if you are a domestic partner?

In certain states (like California for example) if you are in a Registered Domestic Partnership (RDP) then you are required by law to file your state taxes as Married and filing jointly or Married but filing separately. Under federal law, however, this does no apply and there are currently (as of 2011) no tax requirements or breaks for RDPs on a federal level. Just a warning for RDPs filing jointly... it's a bit of a sticky mess. If you file electronically (I use programs like TaxAct or TurboTax to make my life a little easier) you must first fill out your Federal Tax Forms as if you were married and filing jointly but do NOT submit them (you just need the information that will pop up at the end). Then you fill out the State Tax Forms with the Federal Tax Form information (that you did NOT submit) and then (once the state form is completed) submit ONLY the State Tax Form. Then you must GO BACK to the Federal Tax Form and clear it. After it is clear, you have to fill it out as an individual and submit it as a single person. See? It's a bit of a headache because of the repetitiveness but it's totally do-able. Good luck, I hope this answered your question.
