California Registered Domestic Partners (RDPs) and Same Sex Married Couples (SSMCs) must split community property on their federal income tax returns.
On your 2010 tax return 1/2 of your W-2 income goes on your tax return and 1/2 goes on your wife’s/husband's/partner's tax return!
If you would like help in completing your own 2010 tax returns this workshop is for you!
This is a hands-on, nitty gritty workshop.
You are encouraged to bring your tax forms (1040) and documents (W-2s, 1099s, etc.) to the seminar.
Questions that will be answered include:
If I split the income do I also split the tax withholding? And if so, how exactly do I do that?
What attachments are required to be included with my tax return?
Why can't I efile the return in 2010?
How can I minimize correspondence with the IRS?
What happens if the 1099 form is only in my social security number?
Can we just file jointly instead?
What about claiming the children?
Can I still claim Head of Household?
Is it likely we will get larger refunds?
How long will it take the IRS to process our returns and send our refunds?
