How can I see the contribution (Tax amount) that each spouse is supposed to pay or is due when a married couple file their taxes jointly?

Lets say we are filing together as a married couple (jointly), but we want to also know how much each of us is getting back or supposed to pay so that we can know the contribution of each person. is there a way to know it?

When you file a joint return you combine all of your income and the refund comes in both of your names.   It will not be broken down by the IRS or by TurboTax as to which spouse contributed more, gets more of the refund, etc.   When you are married you are supposed to just share.  (Been married for over 50 years...)
