It all depends on when you were married, when you purchased your home, the interest paid on the house, and taxes withheld from your income.
It doesn't matter when you are married - it could be 12 months or 12 minutes you are required to file a joint or married but filing seperate tax return.

next year i don't thik we will file together either
if you are getting married in 2004 you are legally required to file your 2004 return in one of two ways:
Married Filing Jointly Married Filing Separately.
Married filing separately has the worse tax brackets possible. In only a few, select cases will that option be more beneficial to you.

It was better for us to file jointly and I hear this is the case.
We have totally been over paying taxes since we bought our home 3 years ago. This coming year we are modfiying our monthly withholdings to get closer to the right amount. Since we bought our home we have gotten about a combined 13K back each year and it was about the same this year as married as it was when we were single. We are in a high tax bracket and had grossly overpaid...
