Filing jointly

Hi, I got married this year and my wife and I filed together. Is there a way to see the exact amount each individual received?

No. A joint return is one tax return that contains both spouses information combined. Anything on a tax return can affect the amount of the joint refund.

It is usually more beneficial to file as married filing jointly because some credits and deductions are disallowed when you file as married filing separately. Therefore, it is impossible to determine who deserves what portion of the refund. However, if you would like to see what the refund amounts would have been on two married filing separate returns you can do so. Please view the TurboTax FAQ for instructions on creating a test return to perform a what-if comparison.
