Wow, working 2 jobs for the tax season is going to be exhausting!
I had a great day, though. Had a couple come in late. They are not yet married, but were both previously married and have 5 kids between them. They all lived together for 2014, so this presented a bunch of different options for who was going to claim who. Took about 2 hours to run through all the scenarios with them until we found the best combination for filing that gave them the biggest refund. There was about $2,500 difference from highest to lowest combinations I tried, and that was money that was significant to their budget.
Bottom line: It felt really great to be able to help some people save money on their taxes!
I am a happy sober tax nerd, and I don't care who knows it.
