My husband and I got married Nov.2007, but his employer never switched his status in their records so they hav?

been taking more money out of his taxes bc it still says he is single. Will we be able to get that money back on our tax return?My husband and I got married Nov.2007, but his employer never switched his status in their records so they hav?
All he is doing is pre-paying too much. He should submit a new Form W-4 to his payroll people.My husband and I got married Nov.2007, but his employer never switched his status in their records so they hav?
Yes you'll get it back on a refund. It's your husbands responsibility to update his human resource record when his tax status changes. Maybe you and your husband need to sit down and go over your status changes since you've been married. You should review everything from life insurance to social security accounts to make sure each of you are listed. It's your responsibility to update this stuff as it's not automatically done when they hand you a marriage licenses.
Yes you will. I clam single every year that way they take out more taxes and at the end of the year me and my husband file joint, even though he hasn't worked for awhile. That way you may get it and then some back on your return. It's like putting the extra money into a savings account that you can't touch until tax time.
Yes, you will get it back. Fill out a tax return, you do not have to do anything special, the calculation will automatically show that you overpaid and you will get the refund
Yes, he will get fat refund.


As married person, he can only file as married filing jointly or married filing separately. In most cases, it is better to file as MFJ. Read http://taxipay.blogspot.com/2008/02/fili鈥?/a>
Employers do not do it automatically. Your husband has to fill out a new W4. When you do your taxes it will end with a refund or amount due. You find out by filling out the forms or going to a preparer.
Married or Single just affects how much they withhold. They don't ';report you'; as married or single.. so in effect they're simply withholding too much and since you've overpaid, you get a refund like anyone else who's overpaid.
Yes. It is up to your husband to update his W-4 with the employer.
