yes, your partner will have to lie too. do you really want to hear about it for the rest of your life?
No, but you can be married and file separate.
Yes, it is considered perjury and can result in back taxes, interest, and fines.
That depends on where you are declaring this
File where you live now, Houston.
No, it's not illegal if your parents say it's okay. Well, it wouldn't be illegal even if your parents didn't give their okay. Dating is okay. It's having sex and getting married that are illegal without parental consent.
your best bet would be to ask the department of immigration and naturalization
yeah but youd have to check to make sure its not already married to someone else.
You have the choice each year to file single, or if available, married jointly. If you file single, you each have to file a return.
Being a same-sex couple has no relevance. If you are married (to the same-sex or opposite sex), you file as married. If you are single, you file as single.
You need to file based on your status as of December 31 of the tax year. If you are married you must file married, but you can file either jointly or separately.
Even though your wife has no taxable income, you are still required to file married on your taxes. A tax professional will be able to explain filing statuses more.
Yes, you have to married 6 months or more.
No. The election to file single or married is totally yours, and able to be changed each year.
Married people can file jointly or separately, never as a single person.
A person can not legalize their girlfriend or boyfriend if they are an illegal alien. If the person is married to an illegal alien, they can file for a Visa from the INS.
If you are considered single for tax purpose when the year ends, you can file as single. Even if you get your final divorce decree at 11:59 pm on December 31, you can file as single. And, even if you are married, you don't HAVE to file jointly...you may use the "married filing separately status" (which is different than the "single" status)...and change it every year, at your election.
If you are single, you file as single
You can't file Married Filing Jointly if you aren't a married couple. While you're engaged, you each have to file as Single. But no matter when you marry during the year, you can file Married Filed Jointly for the year in which you marry.
You can do it either way and change the method every year, no problem. Your free election. Of course, there is no such thing as "married single." Married and single are mutually exclusive. You are thinking of "married filing separately."
