Will i still get earned income credit if i file sepratly i didnt get married untill?

august. i have 5 kids of my own before the marriage and only made 5,000. He cashed out a 100,000 in bonds to buy his house not in my name?Will i still get earned income credit if i file sepratly i didnt get married untill?
Filing MFS (married filing separately) disqualifies you for the EIC (earned income credit)...





It also disqualifies you for many other credits and deductions, and overall raises your taxes... On top of that, the IRS audits a higher percentage of MFS filers than any other group.Will i still get earned income credit if i file sepratly i didnt get married untill?
Married filing seperate does not get the credit. You have to file jointly to get this. With that much income, however, you probably won't get the earned income credit anyway, but the tax rate is much lower and would probably still save money in taxes. Do it both ways and check it, or ask your tax preparer. I know that H %26amp; R has a part of the program where they can check it both ways for no additional fee. It would cost more if you filed Married Filing Sep because there would be 2 returns, but no more just to check it.


By the way, the IRS considers you married if you got married on 12/31. You are not allowed to file single as longas you were married on the last day of the year.
Married-Filing Separate returns do not qualify for EIC at all regardless of income.





As you are married (and I assume that you live with your husband), you can file Separately or Jointly but you MUST file as Married.
You will need to file married filing separate
if you are married and file ';married filing separately';' you will not be able to get eared income credit.
If you file separately, you will not get earned income credit.
OK...it doesn't make a difference if you got married on January 1st or December 30th...you file how you are at the end of the year. So, you can either file MFJ or MFS.





If you file MFS, Married Filing Separate, then you will not be eligible for Earned Income Credit. You could only get the Earned Income Credit if you were MFJ and your combined AGI was less than 34K. and even then it is phased out.





No EIC for you this year.





As for the ';tax preparer'; from Jackson Hewitt, consider the source. You get what you pay for. Her answer was Wrong. But I am very thankful for Jackson Hewitt. They screw up people's tax returns and then the people come to my office to amend them. Sure you don't pay as much for JH services but you don't get near the quality of work either.
NO.

I am a divorced male that wants to get married in a church?

I have been married twice but never in a catholic church. I have met the most amazing lady and wish to get married in a catholic church. I am a catholic but never followed. My partner is catholic and wishes to get married in the Church. What do I need to do to for this to happen.I am a divorced male that wants to get married in a church?
As far as I understand it, as long as you are both practicing Catholics and have gone through the marriage seminars and other requirements, I believe you can marry.


I鈥檝e also heard about an possibility that you might be asked to annul your previous marriage(s) I鈥檓 not certain of that though.


You really should ask a priest.


Good luck!I am a divorced male that wants to get married in a church?
My ex husband got married the second time in a catholic church without getting an annulment. My understanding was since WE were not married in a catholic church, the catholics didn't recognize our marriage. Go figure.
Talk to someone at the church about it. You may have to start going to church before hand.

Is there married women that just like discrete phone s*x once in a while?

I don't know why but for some reason I am only attracted to married women. I am xtremely discrete been married for 12 years but I really don't want to have an actual affair with them. I only want to have casual phone and email s*x whith them. I think its much safer and I am doing no one harm. Am I wrong?Is there married women that just like discrete phone s*x once in a while?
So, you're married, and you want to have phone sex with a married woman? My advice: get a family cell phone plan and have phone sex with your wife to your heart's content!Is there married women that just like discrete phone s*x once in a while?
So why don't you have fun with your wife. If you are at work you can text message or leave nasty little notes I do it with my husband. It makes it fun when they get home and keeps sex on your mind all day. I would be mad if my husband was doing this so your not completely committing the crime but it is not right and you shouldn't do it. Your wife is a married woman and she can play the game with you. You just start the game and she will probably follow.
I certainly hope there aren't any married women who want that.





Yes, I'd have to say you're wrong. If you're married..you already have a married woman to be attracted to. Try putting the effort into your marriage...maybe she'd like some phone and email sex occasionally too.
This is an affair. Why don't you just have s*x with your wife instead of trying to get it from some married person on the phone? Better yet, Tell your wife about the affair and let her throw your behind out of the house! Perhaps she is doing the SAME thing as you?
What you are describing is an emotional affair. To some women it is just as bad.





Would you be ok with it if your wife did the same thing with men? Just wondering.





Things have a way of coming back and biting you in the azz.
You are the lowest for of scum there is. How can you look your wife in the eyes everyday knowing you are doing these things to her you piece of S#@*. I hope and pray she either cheats on you or you get caught ';red handed'; Phone sex IS a form of an affair!
I would say yes there are. Do I agree with it? mmmmm yeah I guess it would stop some from having an affair. Just never tell her where she can find you. The phone sex may be better than the physical sex she's getting at home.
i think it's wrong, but it's only my opinion. but, if you're actually looking for someone to get down with that here, you'd probably be better off posting on craigslist.
that is so wrong because how would you like it if your wife of 12 years started talking to other married guys?
Call your wife.
Tony G my man.. yes.. they are out there.... just be patient.. they come looking for you all the time.. note: be a prick.. they seem to like that : )

Why do married women who have a man as their closest friend, pretend it is OK ?

Is he not really their next sex partner in reserve?


And the husbands who are happy with it, do they not realise they are looking at their wives' future lover? Why do married women who have a man as their closest friend, pretend it is OK ?
Its true, the ';friend'; guy has been the end of many marriages, its too bad woman do not understand that such friends are so damaging. Its very easy to cheat emotionally with these men and that will always lead to more cheating and less effort and work in her own marriage. Normally it ends with the words ';I just dont love him anymore'; which is the culturally accepted excuse for leaving your man. Real dirty way to end a marriage!Why do married women who have a man as their closest friend, pretend it is OK ?
I think it is how well two people get along. I also think that one with morals and values would not waste time thinking about trivial pursues. I treat my wife with the respect she deserve as a human. Too, as a man, I give her full range to buy and go as she please. If I do all of this for her and she is foolish enough to throw away creature comforts, house , cars, medical, dental and money in securities, let her go.If I can not trust her loyalty and honesty, I do not need her anyway.


If something is wrong, it will be manifested in the future.We only can hide for so long.
That's not true, and I believe that's a very judgemental statement....





I have a guy friend who I have been best friends with for years, and I have no kind of attraction to what so ever, and my husband fully understands that.





It's all a trust level... And if you can't trust someone in a relationship, then it's going to end up going nowhere anyways... You can't block off the opposite sex just because you're married. That's ludicrous.
Because not all of us are ruled by our genitals. One of my closest friend's, (before we moved) was a guy (his name is JC). He was not the next sex partner in reserve. And if he was reading this right now, he'd be laughing hysterically!





My husband was perfectly content with JC and I being best friends. JC took me to all the concerts and events that I'd have to drag my husband kicking and screaming to (art exhibits, 10000 Maniacs concerts, other girly outings, etc.).









As long as the friend respects your family and is a good friend I do not see a problem. I threatened once to beat a womans rear for hitting on my husband. We have female and male friends, but when someone crosses the line and wants to ruin a relationship and be a homewrecker, it can be a problem! I have some girlfriends that i trust and they trust me too. If their husbands or boyfriends ever hit on me, they would have to 'splain the shiner on the face!
My current 'closest friend' is a girl, but I've had close male friends before while dating, and I think you must have trust issues. I dont find my closest male friends sexually attractive to be honest. If I had, then we would have dated, or been FWB. Even if we had, there was a reason it ended. Part of a relationship is trusting the person you are with isnt looking for anyone else, or 'planning' a rebound.





Do you sit at work thinking 'Welll...if I was to leave my wife, I suppose the next person I would be with would be '______'.


Maybe I should call her and ask about lunch, just incase.'?





The fact that there is no sexual tension between us is the reason we are able to be such close friends. We dont have to worry about the other one making moves, or being overbearing.
its not ok in my books, im a married man and if my wifes closest friend was a man we would not be married.. women who give you the whole ordeal about ';oh he was my friend before you'; or ';i dont get along with girls'; nonsense is because either a) shes doesnt get along with girls because shes a **** or b) she wants to have a sex buddy or a backup incase it doesnt work out.
HEre's the thing..and i'll tell you...husbands, if your wife has a ';friend '; or ';best friend..eventually, they may fall in love and have sex. I had a ';friend for a couple of months or so..soon those ';friend'; feelings starting turning into something else. One thing led to another and I got the best love made to me ever..So now, I am divorcing my husband because we have discovered that we are in love and want to be together...and so....men....do not let your wife get online ';friend';websites.....and watch their behavior.I met this ';friend'; online and now...well, you know the rest....
It is all about maturity.


People who have matured aren't only looking to have sex with people of the opposite gender.


Perhaps you can look at it like men and women having healthy brother and sister relationships so they can build better oppostie sex perspectives in their lives.
You sound very closed-minded! I have a best guy friend who was my ex boyfriend! He and my husband are good friends, we hang out all the time and his girlfriend and I are good friends. There is nothing sexual there at all. Some gals are tramps and can't have male friends without banging them, but not all!
what are you talking about? It just depends on the person, you can't say that all women that have a man as their friend are going to end up doing that person in the future, come on!
I have a wonderful boyfriend that I have been dating for a year. If I Married him, I wouldn't make any contact with other guys that I know. My boyfriend/husband would be the ONLY guy I would make contact with. Except for my female friends,
Okay...what? I guess it's okay if they're gay. But, I used to have a best guy friend who was not and it was just a close friendship and that was all. Seriously.
He should be respectful and become freinds with both of you and respect the marriage or he is a dick.



Friendship is not gender specific.
Sorry you got cheated on but not everyone is like that.
It's not ok. They're the bit on the side....


Like a second resort


;)
Wow, you aren't ever getting married........you know nothing of women.
Is that what happen to you? All woman are not adulterers. Some people lack moral fiber via. married or single
Maybe he's gay.
wtf? not true with everyone

  • According to California Law is Hugh Hefner still legally married to Kimberly Conrad?

    I know in Virginia if you are legally seperated from your spouse you are still married and if you have a relationship with someone else than legally it's an affair. So in the case of Hugh Hefner is he still legally married and if so why won't him and Kimberly get divorced?According to California Law is Hugh Hefner still legally married to Kimberly Conrad?
    They are still married. She actually lives a couple of houses down from the mansion. I just don't think that Hef really sees any reason in divorcing Kimberley, even though Holly would be super stoked. lol I doubt he ever will. Sorry Holly!

    They have two kids together, they live near each other. Maybe it's just not something he thinks is important right now. Hugh Hefner has said he's not really interested in marriage anymore.

    When I married we had a prenuptial agrement?

    Now that he was forced to retire and I am the one who works fulltime, I make more than he does and we've decided to forget the prenuptial agreement since money is not an issue anymore to separate.





    The question is: Is it wrong of me to want a completely NEW bank account for us? Or, should we just do as he suggested, just add my name to his account?





    I personally believe it should be a different account because I don't like the stigma attached to the account he has now... or am I being ridiculous? Thoughts?When I married we had a prenuptial agrement?
    No I think you are correct. Think of it this way...if the shoe was on the other foot...what would he do?/When I married we had a prenuptial agrement?
    I can't see any harm adding your name to his account, just monitor it on how much spending goes on and read your bank statements carefully, then if you see him spending to much money on the wrong things, then change it over into a brand new account. Let the bank know also that you are now they main contributor to this account.

    How does someone divorce their spouse, when they only married them for their papers?

    A friend of mine came here some years ago and married someone so they can get their papers. Now my friend wants to divorce their spouse because they never intended to be with this person for an extended period of time. However the spouse does not want to divorce and is willing to cause trouble and problems for other people. (To add more to the mix, there is a question of if a certain child belongs to my friend.) How do I help? What advice do I offer without getting my friend deported, but allowing them to get the divorce they want??How does someone divorce their spouse, when they only married them for their papers?
    This sounds fishy. When you marry a US citizen, you receive a conditional green card that's good for two years. After two years, if the couple is still married, the condition is removed and the green card becomes permanent. As long as all of the relevant paperwork was filled out, there should be no problem filing for divorce, even if the other person doesn't want one.





    But your friend committed fraud on the US Government by coming here and marrying under false pretenses. He should absolutely be deported.How does someone divorce their spouse, when they only married them for their papers?
    Your friend would be in trouble but also this person would be in trouble also.





    Your friend sounds like they need a lawyer.
    report her to immigration, we do not need that kind over here.
    He deserves what he gets. Especially if he slept with this woman. I hope your friend gets deported and gets his @ss whooped.
    they can divorce if the conditions have been removed and will not be deported.my brother in law (who got the green card,but i think they only got married cuz she was 16 and got pregnant) got a divorce after 8 years but she was the one who cheated on him.if it has only been a little time the citizen can be mean and pull the green card.but i really dont know b/c you dont give enough info as how long have they been married,which spouse wants the divorce, and things like that.
    Deport immediately. What's wrong with you?
    If your friend married someone just for papers, they get what they deserve. Enough of this crap already!

    If the divorce paperwork is filed, are you still married?

    The paperwork is filed and the divorce will be final on the 18th-ish of November. During the waiting period, what is your legal status? Married? Seperated? Single?If the divorce paperwork is filed, are you still married?
    You are married until the judge signs your divorce decree.If the divorce paperwork is filed, are you still married?
    Legal will be yu are married, but if you are totally not with this person and totally away from him its divorse mentaly.


    but if anything - any documents ask to fill form you would have to say you are married, so fill it after :D


    and you would be seperated


    or remarried if u marrie again
    Separated. The divorce is not official until it is finalized.
    Legally separated but still married until the judge signs the divorce decree and it's filed with the courts.
    Yeah. It becomes ';final'; when the judge signs off on it. Legal status? Don't buy lottery tickets until it's final.
    Seperated. Yes you are still legally married until the final decree is issued.
    Separated!
    married, i believe.
    Still married.

    In a married couple can one partner open a new checking account and start paying their own bills?

    The marraige is over 13 years and one partner wants to take back control of their money.The one partner has always done the bill paying.


    The other partner is tired of not having any money. Is there any legal action that can stop the one partner from opening up a new checking account and have the money direct deposited into this account which is not a joint account?In a married couple can one partner open a new checking account and start paying their own bills?
    Either partner in a married setting can open up their own bank accounts, without even informing the spouse. Many people do this to protect themselves incase the marriage comes to an end. Other couples do it and split the bills, so that each person is taking care of their half. My husband has an account in his name only simply because I couldn't make it when he was opening the account and we've never gotten around to adding me to the account. He just signs blank checks and I pay the bills.





    Legally, any monies they recieve in their name, they can do whatever they want with without consulting the other person. The only time this changes is if they are the middle of divorce proceedings.In a married couple can one partner open a new checking account and start paying their own bills?
    Of course! Being married doesn't prevent you from having your own account. Your partner has no legal way to control what you do, or forcing you to use a joint account if you don't want to.





    It's a marriage, not slavery!
    No, there's no legal issue being violated here.
    No there is no legal action that can be taken. I'm not sure which party you are; the one with control or the one who wants control however trust me, this is a good thing. What my wife and I did a while back was have a certain amount from our checks deposted into our joint account each payday which was used for bills and so forth, and the remainder deposited into our individual accounts. That way the bill payer can still ';do their thing'; and the other party can spend ';their'; money as they please...
    mat want to consult the devorce lawyer, and see what can be done.
    WHAT?! OF COURSE YOU CAN! It's your MONEY! You do what you want with it. Just because your married, doesn't mean your your partners slave. You don't work for them. You work for your family, but you also work for yourself. Many married adults have their own accounts, that their partners can't touch. Of course if you go through a divorce or something, then they are entitled to half your earnings and vice versa, but while your still married, you can do whatever you want with YOUR money.
    Well coach it sounds to me like you have a marriage problem not a money problem. When you got married the pastor said ';and now you are one'; that means you should have one checking acct. not two separate ones. The best thing I can tell you is to sit down w/your partner and do a budget together and agree on it, that may even include having a separate category in there for blow money for your partner in which you both need to agree on a dollar amount that isn't going to keep the both of you from being able to pay your bills. Other than that you may want to see a good marriage counselor because by the way you are talking about legally stopping your partner from opening up another acct. I don't think money is your main problem. Good luck.
    No you can't legally stop them.

    Can my work place fire me for not staying married?

    My ex and I worked in the same place and I filed for divorce and have full custody. It seems my employer is taking sides with him and have fired me as quick as the final divorce decree went through. Can they do this?Can my work place fire me for not staying married?
    Once again the venerable hexeliebe does not know what he is talking about. To fire a female after a divorce where both partners work in the same company is an apparent case of gender discrimination. Why did they fire just the female and not both of you? You should contact your local eeoc office and speak with a local attorney regarding the total circumstances of your situation. No one here can evaluate your case completely, but it would be wise to seek further guidance based on the facts you have presented.





    EDITED for Hexeliebe: Your answer did not take into account the number of employees. You only stated that she could be fired for getting a divorce and would have no recourse. She doesn't say how many employees the company has, however, if the company has fewer than 15 the EEOC would most likely refer her to her state's civil rights commission which would then investigate her complaint under state law. If she followed your advice and she does have a case, the 180 day timeline would run and she would have no recourse. If she follows my line she will at least get competent advice regarding the totality of the circumstances.





    I don't know why you chose to go on here and attack the answers of others but I am not going to put up with it. Your answers are wrong more often than they are right and yet you criticize others constantly. You ask for case citations yet you never provide a single one. You claim to be an IT professional and an attorney yet you do not understand basic concepts such as personal jurisdiction.





    When I e-mailed you seeking to be nice, you didn't even have the courtesy to respond. If this is where you want to have these discussions, this is where it will be. I am sure that the many others here whom you have offended will be happy to speak up also!Can my work place fire me for not staying married?
    Move on.


    Something better can be infront of you.


    Why hang around.


    Check out.
    This is the reason I would never hire members of the same family to work for me.





    You need a civil rights attorney. Contact the ACLU and see what advice they can give to you. Probably could even steer you to a lawyer that knows what can be done.





    I hope your husband wasn't the boss' son. But what the hell, you're divorced right?
    No. Find a lawyer. If you can prove that this is why they fired you, you have a very good case against them. However, if the divorce has affected your work performance, they can fired you based on your decreased ability to do your job.
    Yes, they can.





    MJ3000: Post here the exact legal citation which supports your GUESS on this issue.





    Marital status is NOT a protected status by the way.





    EDITED TO ADD:





    Well poster, you have a choice. Do as Ken intimates and face a very long lawsuit in which you will be required to prove to the court that you were fired BECAUSE you were female or look for another job.





    And by the way, Ken still doesn't get it. ONLY if your company has 15 or more employees within a 75 mile radius can you sustain a suit for discrimination on the federal level.





    I'm still waiting for Ken to provide any proof that he is an attorney.
    Nobody owes you a job. If the law where you live says anything about discriminating on the basis of marital status, I'll bet it's about hiring, not firing. Anyhow all your boss would have to do is claim there was another reason.
    In England and Wales, they can fire you but you can then claim against them under the Sex Discrimination Act 1975, sections 1(2)(a), 3(1)(a) and s 3A - ';a person [in your case your employer] discriminates against a woman if...on he grounds of her...marital status he treats her less favourably than he treats or would treat a man.'; [the same would apply in reverse].


    I don't know what the other factors are involved in your dismissal but on the information you have given me, I would get yourself a good solicitor who specialises in claims in employment law.


    It appears that what your employer has done is direct discrimination against you. The only defence against this is a genuine occupational qualification (GOQ) exemption - this would apply for example where the job calls for a man for reasons of physiology (excluding physical strength or stamina), for reasons of authenticity in a dramatic performance, or where the job needs to be held by a man to preserve decency or privacy because it is likely to involve physical contact with men or they are in a state of undress or using sanitary facilities.


    Please do not rely on this advice as being legal advice as this does not constitute legal advice. Contact a solicitor.
    Yes, they can fire you because you look funny, too. As long as the reason does not pertain to your race, religion, ethnicity, or any other protected class they can do as they please. You should be able to file for unemployment successfully though.
    Yes, as most states are at-will employers and anyone can be terminated for any reason or no reason at all. They obviously value him more as employee than you to select to keep him over you.





    Go ahead and file for unemployment and if you can prove you were not fired for just cause, you can collect unemployment while looking for a new job for the next 6 mos. in most cases.
    Are you in America? If so, you were certainly not fired for getting a divorce. I suspect there is a while lot more to this story that we have not been made privy to.

  • Is valentine day more important to dating couples than married ones?

    those not yet married seem to go all out on valentine day but those already married it's just another day. why is that?Is valentine day more important to dating couples than married ones?
    I think for married couples it is just another day.. because everyday for them is Valentine's day. And they know what love is.. even just sitting together on the couch just feeling each others' presence is already love at work.





    Unlike married couples, dating couples don't have their life time together yet. That is why they have Valentine's day to be together.Is valentine day more important to dating couples than married ones?
    Hi trigger,


    according to the old Celtic tradition (renamed St. Valentine's day by the Christian Church some centuries later) the purpose of this aspect of the Goddess Ester (Easter is her annual celebration - it's even kept her name) is to help guide young lovers together and to ensure a happy and fruitful married life.





    Once you're married, the purpose has been fulfilled.





    Just about answers your question, I think or?





    Blessed be





    Karma Singh
    Well it usually happens once you have kids that are at a age that celebrate in school-etc you tend to be so focused on getting those cupcakes made and Valentines made for all the friends and kids at school and any parties that you forget about celebrating for yourself other than a 'I love you and Happy Valentines Day.'; This expecially happens when you have been married for awhile, but not always.
    for some married couples there's a very convenient excuse for this ';everyday is valentines day for us';.





    but ideally it should be like;





    the essence of this day must always a constant reminder of a loving relationship that's why it needs to be celebrated intimately.





    it is also the affirmation of love a complete demonstration on how you care and love with each other.





    how you cherish important moments such as the valentines.





    or simply just to communicate.














    the risk if you DON'T celebrate such ';corny'; moment or you don't value romantic moments (birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas, mother's day etc etc)





    your kids will witness that love and care is not that important at home hence they'll grow up with such understanding. should they have their own relationship they will do the same. in other words this kind of attitude can be inherited to your kids. so watch out.


    if kids grow in a secured environment then what do you think they'll do when they have their own family?





    relationship stagnate, boring





    insecure lover as a result kids suffers and less productive wife, mother, worker and lover





    more misunderstanding





    cranky lover
    To most married ones, gone are the days or wine and roses. They have now to face realities. Earn more to feed the needs of the family.


    Valentines Day are taken for granted or may be forgotten already
    I believe its more important to dating couples, because they are perpetually trying to impress eachother and show more love. When you are married it is obvious and apparent.
    absolutly not. those who are married but not intimate suffer casuality, but those who keep God between them, and are true, they perpetually grow closer
    Valentines day is a lame holiday. It is a day for you to show your true love for the one you love. Shouldn't that be every day?





    It is overrated and overpriced
    Everything is more important to unmarrieds.Everything is over the moment u get married........ahhhhhhh feel lightened up.....thanks 4 asking
    Hmm i know my family members go all out n crazy on valentines day and they are married they do the sweetest things ever imaginable .. i guess it just depends on the couple!
    yeah, especially the teens... grown-ups/married ones tend to want to save more money...
    it's different being a couple and being married.


    the feelings change between people
    who cares
    not really...





    its the same
    uh no

    You are married until the judge signs your divorce decree.If the divorce paperwork is filed, are you still married?
    Legal will be yu are married, but if you are totally not with this person and totally away from him its divorse mentaly.


    but if anything - any documents ask to fill form you would have to say you are married, so fill it after :D


    and you would be seperated


    or remarried if u marrie again
    Separated. The divorce is not official until it is finalized.
    Legally separated but still married until the judge signs the divorce decree and it's filed with the courts.
    Yeah. It becomes ';final'; when the judge signs off on it. Legal status? Don't buy lottery tickets until it's final.
    Seperated. Yes you are still legally married until the final decree is issued.
    Separated!
    married, i believe.
    Still married.

    In a married couple can one partner open a new checking account and start paying their own bills?

    The marraige is over 13 years and one partner wants to take back control of their money.The one partner has always done the bill paying.


    The other partner is tired of not having any money. Is there any legal action that can stop the one partner from opening up a new checking account and have the money direct deposited into this account which is not a joint account?In a married couple can one partner open a new checking account and start paying their own bills?
    Either partner in a married setting can open up their own bank accounts, without even informing the spouse. Many people do this to protect themselves incase the marriage comes to an end. Other couples do it and split the bills, so that each person is taking care of their half. My husband has an account in his name only simply because I couldn't make it when he was opening the account and we've never gotten around to adding me to the account. He just signs blank checks and I pay the bills.





    Legally, any monies they recieve in their name, they can do whatever they want with without consulting the other person. The only time this changes is if they are the middle of divorce proceedings.In a married couple can one partner open a new checking account and start paying their own bills?
    Of course! Being married doesn't prevent you from having your own account. Your partner has no legal way to control what you do, or forcing you to use a joint account if you don't want to.





    It's a marriage, not slavery!
    No, there's no legal issue being violated here.
    No there is no legal action that can be taken. I'm not sure which party you are; the one with control or the one who wants control however trust me, this is a good thing. What my wife and I did a while back was have a certain amount from our checks deposted into our joint account each payday which was used for bills and so forth, and the remainder deposited into our individual accounts. That way the bill payer can still ';do their thing'; and the other party can spend ';their'; money as they please...
    mat want to consult the devorce lawyer, and see what can be done.
    WHAT?! OF COURSE YOU CAN! It's your MONEY! You do what you want with it. Just because your married, doesn't mean your your partners slave. You don't work for them. You work for your family, but you also work for yourself. Many married adults have their own accounts, that their partners can't touch. Of course if you go through a divorce or something, then they are entitled to half your earnings and vice versa, but while your still married, you can do whatever you want with YOUR money.
    Well coach it sounds to me like you have a marriage problem not a money problem. When you got married the pastor said ';and now you are one'; that means you should have one checking acct. not two separate ones. The best thing I can tell you is to sit down w/your partner and do a budget together and agree on it, that may even include having a separate category in there for blow money for your partner in which you both need to agree on a dollar amount that isn't going to keep the both of you from being able to pay your bills. Other than that you may want to see a good marriage counselor because by the way you are talking about legally stopping your partner from opening up another acct. I don't think money is your main problem. Good luck.
    No you can't legally stop them.

    How much does it cost in the state of tennessee to change your name after you get married?

    I just got married and i am looking to see how much it costs to get your name changed on your social security card and your drivers liscense. i also need to know what i need to get in order to get all of this changed over.How much does it cost in the state of tennessee to change your name after you get married?
    In most states what you have to do is to have your new name put on your marriage license. You did that right? When you filled out that marriage license they asked you what name you wanted to use and you should have told them the new name. If you did that, then you wait until you get your marriage certificate in the mail. First you take that to the social security office and apply for a new social security card. I think that costs less than $20. You can probably find out on their website. Then once you get your new social security card in the mail you take that, your marriage certificate, and your current driver's license to the DMV and get a new license with your new name. That will cost whatever your state charges for a new driver's license, probably around $25 but again you can find out on their website. It's really not expensive. It's just a hassle.





    However, if you did not get your new name put on your marriage license then you probably have to go through a legal name change process. I'm not totally sure what that costs but it's a lot more expensive.How much does it cost in the state of tennessee to change your name after you get married?
    Social Security doesn't cost anything, just go to the office and have it changed, bring your marriage license with you.





    DMV might charge $10 depending on how long you want the license to be good for, there again you will need your marriage license and Social Security card.





    Then theres just the simple things of changing your name on your bills if you want and all that, not really a major thing that you HAVE to do. But the other stuff is important.
    U just need your marriage certificate and I think like 20 bucks for the new license...
    I've been married for 7 years.... I don't really remember having to pay anything. First you have to get your social security number changed. You will need to bring your current SS card, current driver's license, and your marriage certificate (not a copy). They will give you a letter at the SS administration building saying that you will be receiving your new SS card in a few weeks. You take that to the DMV and show them and they will change your license for you. Again, it's been too long and I don't remember having to pay anything!





    Congrats on your marriage, may it be a long and happy one!


    Where do you live? I live in Knoxville!
    I am currently in the process of doing both of these things, albeit in California. Changing your name on your ss card is free, just go down to the office and be prepared to wait forever. It does cost money at the DMV, but I'm not sure how much. I went there and there was a TWO HOUR wait, so I picked up an app and left. Make sure you bring your marriage license to make both changes.
    SS costs nothing. DMV will probably cost $20-40.

  • If your married is it wrong to go out for drinks after work w/ co workers who are young hot girls?

    Nothing happens just drinks and laughing.





    Wife knows but does not like it.If your married is it wrong to go out for drinks after work w/ co workers who are young hot girls?
    Picture her going out with attractive men and laughing it up with them? Once in a great while, OK, but regularly, and time you could have been spending with her, no.If your married is it wrong to go out for drinks after work w/ co workers who are young hot girls?
    I don't get upset if my husband goes out with female co-workers after work for drinks. However if my husband referred to them as young hot girls and he seriously thought they were attractive, I would not be too happy while I was sitting at home with the kids. Even if nothing were to happen, I don't think you are being very considerate of your wife's feelings.





    How would you like if your wife went out had had drinks with some young hot guys?
    if she is invited, and decides not to go cuz she feels outdone, it's on her ... however, there should be other male co workers, otherwise it will seem in appropriate ,,, if not, then turn the tables, and see if you are ok with her doing the opposite ...
    Nice KJ - nice!





    Yeah, it's okay to go to happy hour with co-workers. So long as that's all that you are doing...if your wife doesn't like it - ask her join you on occasion.





    My boss invites his girlfriend EVERYWHERE...I am more than happy to leave my spouse at home for happy hour...
    listen to your wife...and it sounds sort kinda trashing...no fence! But also even with hot girls thats wrong! So listen to your wife! Imagen your wife with hot guys doing the same thing would you care!? And even drinking is stupid too! Not getting you all mad or anything!
    i wouldn't care but thats just the kind of person i am but you answered your own question if you love your wife and it bother her then quit...she is worth more than them or else you wouldnt have gotten married if not get a divorce
    If nothing really happens, then no.





    But, c'mon', drinking with hot, young girls is a mistake waiting to happen.





    Then again, maybe you have more control than me....
    Think of it this way would you mind if your wife hung out with a bunch of hot jocks? When it comes down to it it's all about respect for your spouse.
    Honestly.....I'd be pissed!


    I always say, put yourself in the other persons shoes, see how it would feel. How would you feel if your wife was having drinks with some hot dudes she worked with and saw everyday. Hmmmmm?
    ummmmm, seriously is this a question





    show some respect for your wife,shes gonna be the one that loves you even when you can't get it up
    I laughed at this question. That's cute. The fact you're asking means you know it could be wrong. Who's more important - your wife or the hot girls? Duh!
    *fingers crossed*


    please girls say no, please girls say no...
    As long as he calls to say he'll be late coming home, it'd be fine by me!
    just bang your wife's hot 18 year old sister and be done with it.
    Yes. You are attracted to them.
    thats stupid.


    %26amp; Yes ( but i think drinking is stupid)...

    My boyfriend is 30 and doesnt want to get married or have anymore kids?

    I have dating this guy for 3 years and living together for almost 2 years. I brought up the question of marriage and kids. He already has a kid from another girl. He told me that he dont want to ever get married or have kids. I told him it was important to me to get married. I was upset by this because i love him. Well the following day he came back and changed his mind to yes. I find it hard for someone to change thier mind over night.My boyfriend is 30 and doesnt want to get married or have anymore kids?
    Of course he didn't change his mind overnight. He said what he needed to say to ensure that you wouldn't break up with him. Which he knows is exactly what you need to do. If marriage and kids are definitely part of your plans for your future, you need to find a man who shares your goals in life. Your current boyfriend does not, he has made that very clear, so any time you spend with him is just wasted time that you could be using finding someone who is a better match for you.My boyfriend is 30 and doesnt want to get married or have anymore kids?
    Wait it out a bit. If he doesn't want to get married in a few months, then it's clear he doesn't want to.
    He did that because he loves you and wants you to be happy. Be thankful and stop B%26amp;TC*ing.
    he doesn't want to, he ';changed'; his mind to keep you placated. You won't have a husband and children with this man, make peace with that and either stay knowing it or move on.
    Well let me put in my 2 cents because you asked. I think you already know the answer to your question. You want to get married. You want children. You know deep down he does not and he is stringing you along.





    You might love some things about him but it sounds like its not enough to cover all you want in a man.





    Look inside yourself and ask yourself if this is really the man or is it just something for the time being. People only change if they want to, and my guess is this guy isn't going to change.





    Maybe take a leave from him for a short period of time. You will either know he is the one or, you might move on to new waters.
    He might have changed his mind to yes only because he saw how much you were hurt. Stranger things have happened! Give him some time.
    He could just be saying ';yes'; because he wants to manipulate you to stay with him.


    Sounds like you need to take him at his word and move out if you can't get him to the altar.


    I suggest you make an appointment with the justice of the peace at the county courthouse for the standard civil ceremony, and leave some baby catalogs on the coffee table. Make it clear that you are dead serious... time to put up or shut up.
    You need to respect his feelings in this and he needs to respect yours. You have been together long enough to know if you want to spend the rest of your life together or not. Tell him that this is what you want from your future. If he doesn't, he needs to let you know now or you expect a proposal in 6-12 months. If he doesn't come through, then you have your answer and move out and on with your life.





    Also, if he really means he doesn't want more kids, then you need to accept this. He may just be saying this because of issues with the first child, but that needs some serious conversation.
    He probably told you he changed his mind to make you happy. If you feel that his sudden change is not something he really wants to do, than it will not work because he will feel resentment towards you. If you cannot except the fact that he does not want to get married or have children, you should move on and find someone who truly want to.
    Move on.


    He ll just play it up.
    his first response was his true feelings on the matter. I blame you, if marriage was your desire you shouldn't have spent the last two years playing house. Leave him and let the next gentleman know from the door that you are only interested in relationships that lead to marriage
    I would wait it out a few months and see if something happens, if not then you'll know the truth. He might have said that he changed his mind just to keep you around.

    How can I convine a lost love that I'm worth a second look before she gets married in 25 days?

    I have this friend I used to date she's my long lost love. she ended things on a sour note back in 06. I haven't seen her in 3 years but we talk over yahoo instant messenger shes engaged to be married in about 26 days. But I wish I was in her life instead of him.How can I convine a lost love that I'm worth a second look before she gets married in 25 days?
    do something really romantic, take her to the first place you 2 dated or where you met and tell her how you feel. make her fall in love with you and try be like her future husband and she will fall 4 u instead.How can I convine a lost love that I'm worth a second look before she gets married in 25 days?
    This isn't the movies bro... You can't just stop the wedding, you could get killed that way. If life was like movies then movies would be like life the way it is now. If she ended it sourly then it's over and done with. Three years you haven't seen her and now you wanna mess her **** up? Come on dude, you don't love that woman. You just don't want her to be happy unless it's with you. Leave her alone and get on with your life.
    When your talking over yahoo messenger and that love you shared before is still in her heart she should probably be flirting with you and give you any chance or second thought before she gets married. But because she's engaged now, all you could do was give her your blessing, wishing her the best she deserve but in the event she was still in love with you, you had all the chance to steal her from him. Good luck
    This isn't a movie, it's real life. You had your chance and she is obviously happy and moving on with her life. Let her do that, if you love her at all you would grant her that. We all make choices we wish we hadn't but there is no reason to cause chaos for someone we care about when caring about someone means we the opposite. It's not all about you and your feelings, there is a marriage about to happen. Believe me, if she loved you and not him she would tell you because she is the one entering something sacred so she is all over how it's going to impact her future. Be happy for her and move on. Best wishes.
    oh honey... there is nothing you can do. she'll still end up with that guy! Think about it... they already have everything booked paid for... picked out the cake, favors, menu, drinks, decorations, dress, suits, presents. Ok maybe I shouldnt say nothing you can do. I guess you could tell her how you feel and tell her you thinik she should be with you... but your chances are slim. The only thing I can see happening is them getting divorced down the road then she'll want to be with you. If you are meant to be together it'll eventually happen right? If it doesn't then I guess it wasn't meant to be. Oh, I know this must be hard for you~ But imagine how hard it would be to choose between you and him 26 days before they get married! WOuld you really want to put her in that situation? But as I always say, the best rule is to always be honest with your feelings. She'll just either say yes or no
    man this is tough..your question caught my eye quick i think that you should get her number some how and hurry up and tell her how you feel man!. or go to the wedding and be the one who says he objects to the two of them being married and spill out how you feel right in front of the whole wedding and guest if thats the only way man do it!
    Hun, it's too late. Let it go.





    Her getting married is going to haunt you for years. You're going to think about her everyday.





    I bet you are hurt right now.





    You should have fixed things in 2006, but both of you were too cocky to get things straight.





    Lesson learned: You don't realize what you have until it's gone (or in your case, until they marry some one else).





    Be brave. Let her marry in peace.
    You cant.


    She is getting MERRIED!


    that is a huge responsibility and i dont think that any woman would lose a nice guy she is merrying to chase the wild.
    She is ENGAGED to be MARRIED. Move on and please dont make this hard for her.

    okay boy you have about 24 days to figure out how to get her back. I must warn you if it is not meant to be she will marry the guy
    Theres nothing you can do about it. just move on

    What are some good books to read before getting married?

    I recommend everyone to read these:

    I am so glad that you are going through premarital counseling, this is a very wise thing do.





    How can you know for sure you're marrying the ';right'; person?





    The main causes of divorce are: infidelity, finances, addictions, abuse. If any of these are issues from previous relationships (or have come up in your relationship with the person) you know this isn't the type of person you want to marry. I think you CAN know a person well enough before you marry them to know what to expect in a marriage with them. I think most people have a hard time examining the person they are marrying from a critical/analytical view point. But if you really want the marriage to last a lifetime you have to examine the person's character traits.





    God Bless You,


    BeckyWhat are some good books to read before getting married?
    Love and Respect by Emerson. Extremely eye opening. Talks about the difference between men and women, and how to handle each one differently (Guys need to be respected, but girls find loving more natural...and Girls need to be loved, but guys find respecting more natural)
    Hands down for me has to be the Karen Kingsbury Series. It it a fiction series, but has a powerful message written by an awesome author! I very highly reccomend this series.
    Marriage for Dummies
    One of the best books I can suggest is '; Men are from Mars and women are from Venus '; A whole lot of truth and explantion about each other done in comedy fashion .

    Can a married man living in washington state take paternity leave? If so, will he be paid?

    My wife is halfway through her pregnancy. I want to help her for a couple weeks after the one gets here. So, by law, can I take paternity leave? If so, will I be paid for it?Can a married man living in washington state take paternity leave? If so, will he be paid?
    http://www.ncsl.org/programs/employ/sick鈥?/a>





    For the State of Washington (Family and Medical Leave Act):


    Family and medical: public employers and private employers of 100 or more employees are required to offer 12 weeks in any 24 month period for the birth or adoption of a child or to care for a child under 18 years old with a terminal health condition





    But I did find this on the same website, apparently WA does have paid family leave available:





    Washington


    搂49.12.270


    An employer shall allow an employee to use the employee's accrued sick leave to care for a child of the employee under the age of eighteen with a health condition that requires treatment or supervision (1988); effective January 1, 2003, an employer also must allow an employee to use sick leave to care for a spouse, parent, parent-in-law, or grandparent of the employee who has a serious health condition or an emergency condition (2002)Can a married man living in washington state take paternity leave? If so, will he be paid?
    Well, the thing is that paternity leave, although legal, is very looked down upon by the bosses. My DH was told in no uncertain terms that he would be in better standing to take a week of vacation time instead. I imagine if there was a medical reason such where the wife was incapacitated then that would be a different story. But, IMO, if you like your job and don't want to risk your reputation you better take the vacation leave.
    It would be better for you to use vacation time- that is where most companies take out the time for ';paternity'; leave, but around here they call it family friendly time...... contact your employer and find out more information.
    Of course.
    Any guy can take paternity leave using the Family Leave Act. However, it's up to your company whether you are paid or not. Most Dads just use vacation time.

    Married people: did you tell you were with the love of your life during dating or only when marriage discussed?

    This applies to engaged people too! For example was being in the relationship stage no different than when things were good in other relationships or could you tell all along it was different, like they were 'marriage material'?Married people: did you tell you were with the love of your life during dating or only when marriage discussed?
    The key is to first know who you are and be comfortable with self. Then you need to know what things you need and desire in a relationship. You compare those things with what you see in the person you are sizing up. Nobody should enter marriage thinking that they can change their spouse.Married people: did you tell you were with the love of your life during dating or only when marriage discussed?
    I didn't have much in the way of previous relationships for comparison, but I didn't really think that my fiance was ';marriage material'; in the beginning. In fact, I thought we'd never work out long-term or that we'd make a good couple and so I pushed him away a lot in the beginning (I didn't want to date at first -- just wanted to stay friends...and then, when after several years, we got together I tried to keep things casual and non-committed...) But eventually he wore down my resistance and I had to admit that I wanted to be with him forever.

    My husband and I were together for a year and a month when we got married. Engaged after 5 months of being boyfriend/girlfriend. We'll be celebrating our 2 year anniversary in November.





    Congratulations! Waiting is always good. It's good you're patient :)How long does you people moved from bf and gf to engagement and finally married?
    I met my guy at 18(he was 19) we didn't get engaged until I was 20 and he was 21 we got married the following year. Three years is about right, you get to know the person in all moods, happy, sad and angry and you really need to know that stuff before marriage not after the fact.


    Also remember you grow in maturity a lot between those ages, so dont' be surprised if you, or her, call off the engagement before those years are up.
    My husband and I moved rather fast in our relationship..


    We were only dating for about 10 - 11 months when he proposed. Then we eloped after work about a month after that. My husband had to ship off to Iraq. So our relationship moved a little quicker than it might have if he were not in the military. No regrets though he is the best husband I could have ever asked for!!!





    My husband is 22


    I am 29

    It always depends per person. some people get married right away (which, personally, i don't think is the best decision), or take it slow (better!) to really think through what you are doing and whom you are marrying, etc...i think it's wise to wait until she's done with her degree. in the meantime, you will have time to find a house, save up money, etc for your life together, while she gets to finish her degree and all. Congradulations by the way!
    It all depends on people. Personally, I think it's a good idea to wait till one finishes school and gets a career started.





    My husband and I were together for a little over 6 years before we got engaged and another year until actually married.
    Its not a time thing so much as it is just a naturally developing/when the time is right thing. Dont analyze it so much shes just 18 and in 6 months shell wake up and realize she hasnt had enough wild parties yet and dump you.
    depends on the people and the couple i have been with my boyfriend forever now


    I was with him for one year we moved in together


    and i have been with him for 5 years 6 years 2009






    i have been with my boy for just under 3 years and we have just moved in together and if things keep going well and we decide that we can live together i expect to be engaged by 2010
    3 years and 3 kids later we got married..but u do it when u feel the time is right and if u feel she is truly the one for u. No one but yourself can truly answer that question.
    My fiance and I were together for 3 years when he proposed to me. It depends on the people, your life goals and where you are currently in your lives.
    boyfriend, 2 yrs later engaged, 1 year later married. I think waiting till her degree finishes is the best idea..but thats my opinion
    Smart people wait years. Look at it as a test drive. So far no girl has made it past three years with me. Why have that happen and have to get divorced
    I think you should wait until you go back and get your grade 10! ';how long does you people';? hahaha!


    4 years sounds good.
    wait until she finishes school and gets all the wild kinks out of her system

    How to do address a wedding invitation to a woman clergy member who is married?

    Should it be:


    Reverend and Mr. John Doe?


    Reverend Jane and Mr. John Doe?


    Other ideas???How to do address a wedding invitation to a woman clergy member who is married?
    Mr. John and Reverend Jane Doe





    or if she uses her maiden name





    Mr. John Doe and Reverend Jane Roe.





    the husband's name goes first, the wife's name goes second. If either of them has a title then you use the title instead of Mr or MrsHow to do address a wedding invitation to a woman clergy member who is married?
    Reverend Jane Doe and Mr. John Doe is most common, but your second of Reverend Jane and Mr. John Doe is perfectly ok as well.





    Some people still stuck in the past will say that you always list the man's name first, but you can equally be correct and list the person YOU KNOW first. If you don't know Reverend Jane, then choose Mr. John first.
    The husbands name goes first on invitations so it would be;


    Mr. John and Reverend Jane Doe
    Normally, the husband's name comes first. However, there is an exception for when a woman has an occupational title (i.e. Doctor, Reverend, Lieutenant, etc.) and her husband does not have such a title. In this instance, the woman's name will proceed the man's.





    For example:


    The Reverend Jane Doe and Mr. John Doe





    (or if she kept her maiden name)


    The Reverend Jane Doe and Mr. John Smith








    -
    Mr %26amp; Mrs John Doe. If you were addressing her only, it would be either Reverend Jane or Mrs Reverend Jane. How you have it listed is awkward since the man's name is listed first and there isn't any way to distinguish that she is clergy while he isn't.

    How can I be sure if he married me for green card?

    I have seen so many red flags warning for last two years and he has been emotional abusive to me ever since. We got married in December 2005 in Philippines and he is filipino. So, I told him that I want a divorce. He said, please wait till he is getting a green card. Why was he being so manupaltive or controlling to me? I have a feeling that he is after for the green card. What do you think?How can I be sure if he married me for green card?
    We see so many Philippinos who come here to marry a USC. They don't care if they are old with one foot in the grave, or if they are dying...all the better. Once they get here they stay married long enough to get the green card or their citizenship and then they bring tons of family members over. You can even buy these brides on line. I have had a beautiful young 18 year old girl standing in front of me, and when I look through her packet the dude she is coming to marry is 70 and scary looking. I've asked, ';Do you love this man';. They just look at you some even begin to cry. This crap is arranged by their families as a why to America.





    My take on your husband, yes he wanted a green card.How can I be sure if he married me for green card?
    Screw him. If he is a jerk, to hell with what he wants. Get your divorce and get him out of dodge!
    leave him now. he wants the green card, and if you stay with him any longer then he will get it and not be deported like he should be.
    I think your initial instinct is right on the money. He wants his Green Card and when he gets it he will s h ! t all over you because of your kindness. If I were you I would file for divorce immediately. Try to do it behind his back where he won't retaliate against you.





    Good luck.
    G-R-E-E-N C-A-R-D
    Sounds like he just wants the green card.
    Yes he wants a green card !!!! make sure you dump him or you might be in trouble !!!!!!!! cuz if the immigration people see that it's a fake marriage you will be in trouble !!!!
    Hello green card.
    Do you really need us to tell you what is going on with your marriage?


    You should be the one know about this.


    Screw his green card. You said he is ';abusive?';


    Go to USCIS office, tell them your story.


    They will deport him.
    he is,, if you divorce before the grren card is issued,he goes back to his country and if it's after,he'll be able to stay here.If you see and know the red flags,, don't avoid them.
    Why did you ignore the ';flags';. Dump him, send him back from whence he came, what are you waiting for? He has no love or care for you, you were a ';means to an end'; Get rid, report him, get him deported. How many times do you need to be abused before you wake up? Men love to be ';in control'; even the best of them, wake up woman, are you not worth more? Why the h**l would you choose to be with someone who treats you so badly?
    He might have married you for the green card, or maybe not. But he is mistreating you and if you want a divorce you should get one.


    He would probably only act worse once he got the green card, and you really don't need to spend your time doing favors for men who don't treat you the way you deserve to be treated.
    im sorry but it seems like he wants the green card and nothing else dont give him that chance!
    I think you are in a one-sided relationship and you are on the losing side. If all he wants is the green-card then you should get something; a clean house everyday, foot rubs, cooking, make him do something for you!
    of course,so whats your next move?.
    yep, he wants a green card....dump him now dont let him have it.
    Well if made that statement asking you to wait till he get his green card before he will divorce you, chances are he married you only for the reason. SORRY
    Kick his *** to the curb. That's where you USUALLY put your garbage, isn't it?
    I think it is a big leap to say he just used you to get the green card. He may care about you and just be horrible at showing his affection, he wouldn't be the first guy to have that problem.





    If he does care and he knows that you want a divorce, it is logical for him to want to wait until he can stay in the country.





    Either way, you need to do what is right for you... not him.
    Of course he married you for the green card. He's as much as told you so.

  • Does anybody know any couples that were each others first loves, who ended up getting married ?

    Just curious, I find it interesting. I know of maybe two couples. Does anybody know any couples that were each others first loves, who ended up getting married ?
    Yeah me and my husband are each others first love. Does anybody know any couples that were each others first loves, who ended up getting married ?
    My grandparents. She was his little sister's best friend. And he was her older brother's best friend. One day she went to his house and he told his dad that she was the girl he was going to marry. Took him 4 yrs to convince her but they got married when she was 20 and he was 24. They were married 40 yrs when he died.


    My sister's best friend. She met her husband when he was 16 and she was 14. They met in line at Krystal's. They've been married for 24 yrs now. (She was 18 and he was 20 when they got married)
    Yes my husband and i were each others first loves.





    He was 25 and i was 21 when we met and started dating.





    Neither 1 of us had ever been in a serious relationship before and we were both still virgins.





    We didn't wait for marriage to have sex we started while we were dating.
    Me and my first husband we was each others first for everything.. Got married at 16 lasted 5 years got divorced.....But I've got two beautiful sons out of it no regrets.... Sometimes things just don't work..
    My husband and I. I was 14 when we started talking, and then 15 when my parents let me be his girlfriend. We're now married and have a beautiful baby girl.
    my parents, lol.


    they got together when they were 16 and had my sister at 18, then got married @ 21 whilst pregnant with me. they were kind of young really.

    How could a only child of a single parent (till she was 9) get married and not include her mom?

    Only child, only daughter, wedding plans were ';sort of'; set for next spring in Key West and she decided to get married in North Carolina on vacation. She didn't tell me for 5 days afterward and is now sad because she made me sad. What did she expect me to feel?How could a only child of a single parent (till she was 9) get married and not include her mom?
    A lot of people end up just eloping because they don't want to deal with the hassle and stress that a wedding causes. I have an uncle that did the same thing. Him and his gf went to N.C. for a vacation came back home to MO ten days later and were married. She probably didn't think you would be as sad and upset as you were. She was probably thinking this was a way not to deal with the stress and hassle but still be able to get married, and in a place she obviously enjoyed, and maybe even that it would be an interesting story for her kids someday. I'm sure she didn't mean to hurt you or she wouldn't be sad that it did.How could a only child of a single parent (till she was 9) get married and not include her mom?
    What is done is done. I would suggest have a nice reception for her and make it as special as a wedding (flowers, dresses, etc). That way most of the typical wedding day stress isn't there and you can all just sit back and enjoy. Everyone can dress up and dance the night away.
    mom, it was your daughters wedding day you should be happy/supportive with whatever decisions she made/makes to celebrate it her way only child or not
    I think she was being selfish not thinking of the consequences of how it would make others feel.
    Maybe she has pictures?

    Who should claim the baby on taxes when parents live together but are not married?

    My best friend had a baby this year, she is not married but lives with her boyfriend. Her boyfriend carries the baby on his insurance through his job, his HR said he should claim the baby on his taxes. I think she should claim him regardless of who carries him on insurance. Is there some reason that one should claim him over the other? Is it based on who makes more?Who should claim the baby on taxes when parents live together but are not married?
    Both unmarried parents who live together are entitled to claim the child for all the benefits, but only one of them can. They cannot split the benefits. Either one takes all the benefits for a child or the other takes all the benefits for the child. If the parents cannot agree then the parent with the higher income will be granted to childs tax benefits by the IRS.





    The benefits of claiming a child are:


    (1) dependency exemption


    (2) child tax credit


    (3) additional child tax credit


    (4) dependent care benefits


    (5) education credits and/or deductions


    (6) earned income credit


    (7) head of household, but only for the parent who pays more than half of the costs of maintaining the household -- both cannot qualify for this because both cannot pay more than half the cost.

    This advice was based upon my understanding the law in effect at the time it was written as it applies to the facts provided by you. See my profile for more infromation.Who should claim the baby on taxes when parents live together but are not married?
    I agree with the HR Block Tax Adviser. If they live together, the one who benefits most should claim the child. Only one can claim head of household and that is the one who provides more than the cost of maintaining the household. The person that claims this filing status must have a dependent child on his tax return.


    This happened to me. I claimed my baby as head of household, he paid child support, the daycare %26amp; all medical bills. As my baby got older 8 yrs. or so, we alternated the years and gave one another a hand written letter giving permission to do so. But this was long ago and laws change frequently.


    I advise you to please have your taxes filed by a licensed professional CPA since you now have a dependent and have to use the longer form 1040A. The CPA is there to guide you with his expertise and answer all your questions in order to keep you from getting in trouble with the IRS. You dont want any red tape with them because they will penalize you. I started using a CPA at the age of 25 and still do. They are up to par with ALL laws, whats allowed and whats not. Dont be afraid.

    Only custodial parent can claim the child. It does not count who is paying child support. If both parents have equal custody of the child, the parent with higher AGI can claim the child.





    Who can claim the child if the parents are divorced, separated or unmarried, read: http://taxipay.blogspot.com/2008/03/chil鈥?/a>
    The parent that had the highest amount of taxable income should claim the child. They may qualify for the EIC and the additional child tax credit which would allow them to get a bigger return and not owe as much in taxes. If they are looking to save money, I would do it this way.
    One of them will file Head of Household and one of them will file Single. They'll have to look at their entire income/deduction picture to determine who should claim the child and who should be Head of Household (it doesn't have to be the same person)
    Whoever pays over 50% of the child's total support is the one entitled to the dependency exemption.

    I think that Tom and Katie are just in it for the show - I would pretty much bet that they won't be together for all that much longer. They're both pathetic to me ... sorry xx





    I think Will and Jada Pinkett Smith will last forever. They have such a unique and surprisingly wonderful marriage (which seems to be extremely rare in Hollywood!) They are fairly private and I respect that about them.

    Does the attorney -client privilege count when you are married to someone?

    I have been married approx 6 years and separated for 2 due to domestic violence. My husband went to prison but refuses to give up the whereabouts of our son who is 5. I know that his lawyer knows where our son is but I guess he does not have to tell me? Does the attorney -client privilege count when you are married to someone?
    Unfortunately the attorney-client privilege is almost absolute.





    As long as the attorney is not a participant in an ongoing crime or has direct knowledge that a crime is going to be committed which will result in death or seious injury... he is ETHICALLY bound to keep his mouth shut.





    Sorry.Does the attorney -client privilege count when you are married to someone?
    You need a lawyer for the divorce. Consult your lawyer now about how to compel testimony.





    If your husband is in prison, someone who is not the parent has the child. Is this a kidnapping? If so, call the police. If the lawyer conceals information about an ongoing crime, he can face some very serious consequences.
    A judge could subpoena him to court and make him tell. Do you have an attorney?

    Men do you ever get lonely if you are married?

    I do i get lonely, i want more attention from my spouse . I want to still know that i am wanted and loved and that i still look good. I know this is a silly question but i just want to know if others feel the way i do. Need attention and love to be loved. Not a sex maniac but that is ok also. Just want to know if marriage is supposed to be all work and no play because this is what i get due to his thinking about work all the time , even at night . Boring indeed!Men do you ever get lonely if you are married?
    Marriage is work. Try showing her how much you love her, need her, want her and compliment her and she is likely to do the same. Remember this - She cannot read your mind. If you need something from her...you have to tell her. That's how it works.Men do you ever get lonely if you are married?
    Here is a think on it answer. Remember when you met you could not get enough of each other. Honey moon to much of each other. First year: O baby I love you so much 2nd year: Hi baby 3rd year: hello 4th year: what do you want.


    See where I am going if you do not say anything in how you feel in the 5th year you will be repeating the same thing with your seconed wife and so on. There is no such thing as to getting tired of each other. by the way do you do any thing for your wife to make her want you. May be you should try that
    Of course we do. We aren't usually as moody and needy as women are, but we love and crave the attention of our women just as much as they do.





    Nothing makes me feel like all is right with the world than having my head in her lap while she runs her fingers through my hair.
    Oh, yeah, I know how you feel. All I get is crumbs, after wife's commitments at church, her chaotic family, her work, her griping, her hormone swings, pets, her girlfriends talking to her for hours, yard work, not much left,,,,
    Marriage is always work just like all relationships. Women seem to think we are men so we don't want to feel needed and appreciated. This is what is the biggest reason men find mistresses.
    Hell, yes !!!I ,know exactly where you are coming from ! It is just reversed in my case. All I ever hear is snoring. Seems we have the wrong spouses !
    sometimes you're more lonely when you get married
    I feel your pain! Same thing here...:(


    Edit: above me...SO TRUE! lol
    man up bro
    Of course, but you get used to it. Women are evil beings, they only want to use you. They don't really love you. Sorry I had to tell you.

  • What's up with a 34 year old never-married woman?

    I know that's a bit unusual. Is there likely something hidden there that I can't see on the surface? Or is it likely just coincidence? I understand some women are real into their careers and stuff, but this gal almost broadcasts she's looking for a husband. Is there likely some hidden baggage there at 34 years old?What's up with a 34 year old never-married woman?
    NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS...





    as I met my wife when she was 45, I am 30....





    She was NOT a COUGAR..... she was a LADY who wanted to be treated AS SUCH.........A LADY....





    we've been married... 11 yrs now... age makes no difference either!What's up with a 34 year old never-married woman?
    I wonder if you're talking about my older sis. In her case, she trusted a man who claimed he would marry her when she was barely 20. He turned out to be a monster who took advantage of her and used racism as a justification.


    She didn't finish college because she was a perfectionist who couldn't stand to get a C.


    She generally has a bad sense of how much time is passing and is therefore always late.


    She's not much better with money.


    Sure, you can call this baggage and some of it may turn off a potential suitor.


    **** happens in life. You shouldn't judge someone by the obvious. If you're not sure you are what this person is looking for, have enough respect for her not to waste her time. She obviously can handle that on her own.
    Hmmm, I'd ask for MORE DETAILS, because THERE ARE MANY MANY WOMEN, who at that age are not married...





    She could be PICKY about who or what she wants in a man.... or a female partner...





    She may be a HIGH MAINTENANCE WOMAN, looking for a Financially Solid Secure man to have for a mate..





    Does NOT mean she has ANY NEGATIVE BAGGAGE...





    I'm a 46 yr old Single Mom, SINGLE BY CHOICE!!!! I have been dating a man, for the past 3 yrs, but we are in NO Hurry to get married, as we like our arrangement...





    Why not ask her, what type of man she is looking for, if your interested, ask her out, or Wish her well with her search or set her up with one of your friends...





    REMEMBER: some women, do seek men, but In Real, they Like Women company... she could be hiding the fact that she is A Lesbian or Bi Sexual...





    You never know do you?
    I didn't marry until I was 40 years old. Yes, I was a career woman, but I did date. In fact, I had proposals from four men by the time I was age 34--and two returned to me a few years later to propose again whining about how no one had treated them better than I had.





    I didn't want to marry a man that was a jailbird, abusive, controlling, into porn, uneducated, who cheated his employer, who couldn't hold a job, was socially inept or emotionally immature, but those were the kind of guys that I met. This made it very easy for me to choose a career over marriage.





    I don't think my standards were too high. Theirs were too low. I'd rather be single all my life than to marry someone who didn't have a desire to make a good life the honest way. I wasn't about to sentence myself to a life of misery and regrets.





    I finally met the perfect man for me in church, and we couldn't be happier. I'm so glad I didn't give in to personal insecurities and peer pressure.
    No not at all. On the contrary do you want some 34 year old woman with kids, marriage etc that kind of baggage? No if she is for you then make it happen. My cousin just got married and she was 2 and still a virgin. I to waited for marriage at age 23 and I was a virgin!!! So no this is not weird!!
    hey, i am 34 and never married. and find that it is not unusual. i have not met a man up to my standards. however, i am not actively seeking a husband either. i think i am offended by you question.
    yup, they've been playing the i'm too good for any guy card.. that now they want a baby cause ALL of thier friends have one, and time is a running out...
    I don't know...how old are you? What's your story? You divorced and think that people that try to marry the right person to avoid that must be cuckoo?
    Maybe because she wants to settle down, and not just settle.


    Nothing wrong with it.





    Is there a law that says if youre a woman you must be married by 30??
    I don't think it's reasonable to infer anything major about her based on her age and marital status.
    Maybe she just hasn't found the right guy yet. Don't assume anything about her based on the fact that she isn't married yet. 34 isn't that old to be unmarried anyway.
    Maybe she's a psycho. The guys get wise on the second or third date and take off.
    Maybe she just hasn't found the person she wants to spend the rest of her life with.
    She's most likely set in her ways and very picky.
    Maybe she hasn't gotten married yet because the only men she meets are jerks like you.
    I applaud her for being pick and waiting on the right person. I wish I had done that.
    HOW OLD ARE YOU? What is YOUR BAGGAGE?





    Let her live her life, %26amp; you live yours...





    I bet she is Happy with her life... are you happy with yours? Doesn't sound like it!!!!
    SHE HAS HER RIGHT TO BE PICKY...





    WHY WOULD SHE JUST SETTLE FOR A LOSER?





    GOOD FOR HER!!!!!!
    she wants to settle down.
    I can check her out and get back to you. Tell her to call....
    There could be probabilities, She could be controlling in her date, or demand what men give her, Men want alot of attention, space, and more of all love. Women a lot of time push themselves onto a man. This can speed up the process of a break up or a divorce. This is my tip on successful dating or marriage:





    1. Have sex once a night, first foreplay, then intercourse





    2. Space between both husband and wife, Minimum of 30 mins to 1 hour a day upon arrival at home. Remember, 24 hours in a day, 8 hours to work, 8 hours to sleep, 7 hours left for anything.





    3. Have sex at night only during work days, then twice on the weekends.





    4. On a day off from lovemaking, hang out with your friends, Men hang out with men, women hangs out with women. for one night.





    5. This is a recipe for a long relationship. you will find that both couples will be so glad to see each other.
    That's almost like asking, ';Is there something wrong with a woman at 34 who is divorced and looking for love? Not everyone jumps into things. Everyone is different and has different goals and achievements they want to accomplish and obviously starting a family was at the end of her list. Why don't you go out with her and find out. You are obviously interested if you are asking the question
    my guess is that she seems nice on the surface, but when you get to know her you will learn she's a bit of a nut-job.. I bet she's dated guys and then scared them away by being overly clingy or neurotic..
    i can't hear you. her clock is ticking so loud my ears hurt.

    How will our taxes be effected after we get married?

    When I do my taxes (I am already VERY LOW INCOME) I get a good refund back for being low income %26amp; because of my children. I am getting married next year, he is very low income as well, I think that both of our incomes together still keep us in the low income tax bracket, how will that effect our taxes as far as the EIC (Earned income tax credit) %26amp; the credits for our children? Just wandering if we will still be able to expect a good refund the following years or not. Thank you for your answers!!How will our taxes be effected after we get married?
    Normally, tax wise you are not punished for getting married. On the contrary you should expect a better combined refund.


    When married you can file as married filing jointly (MFJ) or married filing separately. In most cases, it is better to file as MFJ. If you file MFS, you will not get many credits and deductions.How will our taxes be effected after we get married?
    If you file separately, then you may no longer qualify for the EIC because I think there is a rule restricted it to those who either file jointly or are single. I could be wrong.





    If you are married and file jointly, then the maximum total income that is in the tax bracket to which you refer is greater than it is for single persons. Therefore, if you are both in that bracket now, you are likely to remain there after marrying.
    Dear MM: The EITC limit for married last year was $41,000 for 2 kids and $ 37,000 for 1 kid. If your combined income was more than those numbers you would not qualify.





    Keep in mind those numbers were last years numbers and will change a little this year and for '09 the EITC will be calculated on 3 kids not the 2 (max) of years past.





    If you know your income numbers, go to www.hrblock.com and try their free calculator to get an idea on your refund with EITC included.

    We were told that my daughter's live-in marine boyfriend could not carry military insurance on their child (2 1/2 months old) even though he is the legal father on the birth certificate. Have they been misinformed ?Can a soldier carry insurance on a legal child of his, even though he has never been married to the mother?
    You have been misinformed.





    Children born out of wedlock and not in the custody of the member are not normally entitled to DEERS privileges. However, if the child is residing in the marine's household and he is providing 50% of the financial support for the child, then the child is eligible for coverage. See MCO P5512.11 for additional information.





    Therefore, you need to establish the child as the servicemember's dependent in order to be entitled to DEERS privileges and subsequently TRICARE. See http://www.usmc.mil/directiv.nsf/0dec83e鈥?/a>





    for Children Born Out of Wedlock. See chapter 2 of this Manual. Also, for reference, Children Born Out of Wedlock, with Subsequent Marriage of Their Natural Parents are Considered Legitimate Children. To establish such use NAVMC Form 10922 for dependent children legitimized by marriage of their parents may be approved from the date of the marriage.





    Chapter 2 states:





    Commanding officers have the authority to


    approve dependency applications for dependent children claimed on or after 26 November 1993, providing all supporting documents have been viewed. An approved copy of the NAVMC Form 10922, along with all supporting


    documentation, will be forwarded to the CMC (MRP-1) for review.





    2004. ELIGIBILITY FOR MEDICAL BENEFITS. A DD Form 1173 is the authorized ID card to be issued to a child(ren) born out of wedlock, provided the Marine has taken the child into his/her household and has assumed financial responsibility for the child by furnishing more than 50 percent of the child鈥檚 support, or the Marine has been judicially determined to be the child鈥檚 natural parent. A child without a court order who leaves the household is no longer entitled to medical benefits, effective the date of departure.





    2005. SUBMISSION AND FORWARDING OF THE DEPENDENCY APPLICATION,


    NAVMC FORM 10922


    1. When submitting a NAVMC Form 10922 for determination on behalf of dependent children to the CMC (MRP-1), the following documentation must be attached:





    a. certified copy of the public record or the child鈥檚 birth


    certificate;





    b. a notarized Children鈥檚 Dependency Determination Affidavit, NAVMC Form 11346, completed by the child鈥檚 physical custodian, or a notarized statement attesting to the amount of support and the dates received; (to show that 50% of financial support comes from the marine)





    c. a statement made and signed by the Marine, as to whether the member is the natural father (male Marines only); and





    d. certified copies of all legal and court documents pertaining to the paternity and/or support of the child(ren).





    Hope this helps.Can a soldier carry insurance on a legal child of his, even though he has never been married to the mother?
    Yes
    Yes, absolutely.
    yes
    If it is YOUR child, YOUR insurance should cover any care needed! I would look into that!
    They have been misinformed.





    Legitimacy is totally irrelevant to paternity, and to insurance. If the child is his, he can list him on his CHAMPUS.





    EDIT... CHAMPUS has recently been renamed ';TRICARE';, but the same rules still apply.

    you'll get a lot of run around, but yes he can carry insurance on your child! my sons daddy (army) and i were never married, and he carries insurance on him. try calling tricare, the military insurance carrier, or try looking up d.e.e.r (there maybe a s on the end of that). we had to jump through so many hoops to get my son on his insurance it was unreal. when my son was born his daddy was in iraq, so i could not legally put him on the birth certificate (since he wasn't there to sign it). we had to fill out forms, change the birth certificate, and still jump through hoops. it was a long process, but it can be done. be prepared to get frustrated and mad as hell, because its gonna drive you up a wall fast. good luck, i hope your dealing with this goes better that ours did!
    Absolutely yes.
    Firstly, the someone else is totally not relevant. Forget him.





    Abandoning the mother is between the father and mother and doesn't affect access. Access is still possible.





    Denying the child previously doesn't affect access. Access is still possible.





    Mother is married to somebody. Access is still possible.





    Chances of father getting sole custody. Low to impossible. Must prove mother is unfit.


    Chances of father getting shared custody. Not bad. Needs to prove he is a fit parent, stable, not violent criminal etc...
    It's not a question of if he can.





    He has to ... legally.
    maybe the military are different. but i know if someone files for child support the father has to supply medical insurance, dental until age 18..I would check further into it.
