I get my taxes done each year and my accountant tells me I get more back filing married separate. I'm good with numbers and did some digging. We make within $2000 from each other. Tho only difference is I max out my 401K and she has a pension. So when I do my numbers using the standard deduction I come out to be almost exact either way. Ex. if it's $1000 separate it's $2000 married for the return. The tax tables match doing it either way. Think he's trying to make money on doing 2 returns for me instead of one?
