Married but filing single

Asked onWednesday, June 21, 2023 by Kellie

My husband and I are separated, not legally. His choice was to file this way. He claimed me as a dependent on his taxes without asking me. I've already done my taxes and I don't even know if I could have claimed myself or not because I owe in $95 to the IRS I just want to make sure that it's legal that he claimed me. We do own a house together. So maybe he could do that as head of household.

Business Formation

Opening up LLC for gambling business

Asked onTuesday, June 20, 2023 by Damien

I have a gambling strategy that I’d like to use as a side business for a few hours everyday. (My actual job pays 110,000 and I am in New York City. I am a 22 year old single). Would it be tax efficient to open an LLC to avoid increasing my adjusted gross income? (Does increasing my AGI by $10,000 even make a difference in taxes?) If so, is it beneficial to open one out of state (to reduce annual filing fees)?
