Its a joint tax return. It is our joint income.
Why is it so hard for you to understand? One spouse works and pays into the system on that ONE salary and doesn't make contributions for TWO people or one and a half.
The one working spouse gets his/her full benefits on their contribution - according to ONE salary. The non working spouse gets benefits that family didn't pay into the system for. The worker paid according to ONE salary. The non working spouse gets a freebie. So joint tax return means nothing in this situation.
I honestly have to say - FR has gone down the tubes. There was a time FR had the sharpest people on the block here. I can see why they gave up on it - doubt if they even lurk - there is only so much hair you can pull out.

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
