Tax law changes

Thanks for the additional information.   There are still some news articles that only list the $125,000 threshold and omit the $250,000 for joint filers.   I fully agree that we have to wait this out though I suspect it will stand.  As I stated, my daughter has never filed a return so she never indicated whether she could  be claimed  on another return.   I asked the question to find the correct path.   I would much rather not file an amended return!  My response was in part to assure the community that I am not party to tax fraud.
