I ran out of characters. How do I notate that I spent 2,000 dollars on the retirement account (which benefits every teacher enrolled in it in the state) instead of in social security? My husband looked to see how much he would get back if he filed alone and the number was 2,000 dollars higher than if we filed jointly. I think it's because of the retirement/social security problem. I think I have been overpaying for years if that is correct.
