January 26, 200719 yr dumb way of figuring it out: fill out your taxes both ways and see which one is better

January 26, 200719 yr If you give me your bank account number, debit number, and pin code, I'm sure I could figure something out for you.

Exactly. In 99.9 percent of cases you file jointly.
