Tax question

Do I need to change my withholdings right away to being married or can I wait until 2005? Do we need to file jointly this year? I have no clue how this works!

TIA

Re: Tax question

You must file jointly or married, but filing seperately. Your tax preparer will probably run your numbers both ways to see which is to your advantage.

You can change your withholdings any time you like but the married rate reduces your tax withholdings so you may end up paying more at tax time. Again, it's something your tax preparer can advise you on.
