area of the reason being human nature. enable's say my taxes are 10% appropriate now. there's a great incentive for me to artwork stressful because of the fact i'm getting to maintain each little thing. If my taxes are raised to 50% then i'm much less vulnerable to artwork stressful because of the fact lots of what I make is leaving my pocket. If my taxes flow as much as 80% interior the call of the government is familiar with of how ultimate to allocate the funds then there is very almost no incentive for me to do greater beneficial than what it takes to stay to tell the tale. Why could I if that is basically going to get taken faraway from me. i don't be attentive to what the respond is, yet i be attentive to that is not any longer to get the government greater in touch in banking and private corporation. as quickly as you supply the government a capacity they're going to in no way, ever supply it decrease back. via the way - GW Bush develop into the tax and spendiest president provided that FDR. Clinton's activity cost and fiscal fulfillment got here usually as a results of Reagan's tax cuts. the end results of regulations like this generally lag some years.

If he has not been claiming you through the year.. by all means he can claim you. It would be wise on his part to claim zero through the year, then claim his self, you, and the children if you have any .. at the end of the end.
Guess there is someone that is going around thumbing me down.. that's ok.. I know what I say is all truth ;o)

No!!!! You can spoil his evil plan by getting a job, be out the door at 6am every morning, work at a mind numbing job until your brains run out of your ears and have fantasies where you wish the MIR toilet seat fell on you instead of that girl on "Dead Like Me" and then realize, even if you did die, how would you know?

Yes. If he files as "married, filing jointly", that in effect "claims" you. If you aren't earning income, it will lower the taxes compared to if he were single and earning the same amount.

Your best bet is probably to file a joint return. You can do this even if only one of you had reportable income. If you file a joint return, you'll get the exemption for both of you.

File jointly.
Spouses are never a dependent but you get an exemption for your spouse if you file jointly.

You are not considered a dependant you are a spouse. A dependant is a child.
