Hi! Thanks for your note. I know the considerations and am filing jointly.
I have done the two types using the downloaded software and that's the obvious way to find out the answer to my question. But it requires a hell of a lot of work entering in all of that information twice. Hours. Hence my looking for a quick way. I will dig up that quick-and-dirty calculation at the URL I've misplaced... And retain hope that the woman at TT was right that you can compare easily using the online version!
