How do I answer "Did you get a state or local tax refund in 2015?". My daughter got married in 2016.
In 2015, husband and spouse were single and filed separately. Her husband itemized and owed $54 on his NY state return. My daughter filed a short form and got back a $464 refund on her NY state return.
Now in 2016, they are married filing a joint return. How do I answer this question now that they are filing jointly but in 2015 they filed separately.
