Filing married for first time, husband in Army, i worked only 2 months from oct – dec 08, bought a house and?
a rv. bought the house in july 08, the rv in dec 08. im a german national and didnt have a ssn until august, then started working in oct-dec, i only paid 68 cent in state taxes haha. husbands fed taxes withheld were 1843.42, he claims 0. we got married in 07 but couldnt file together as i had no social yet. we paid 333.86 in county taxes for the house and 3427.18 in interest in 2008. we already know what we are getting back in state taxes for him, we assume i might have to pay. we also bought a new car in april/may 08, purchased on army post. we have made some home improvements (tile in dining room, patio in back, porch in front) have the receipt. what about the first time home owner credit for 7500? our 10% would be way over that so we would get the 7500 so..any estimates on how much we would get back in fed taxes or in general? thank you to whoever will answer
