I found out my husband hasn't been paying our joint taxes for 2006 and 2007, and I paid for 2008. I gave him the money to pay, but it looks like I'm the one who didn't pay on paper. Am I right in reading that I do not qualify for innocent spouse relief because the tax owed is mine? What should I do to handle this situation, especially for the sake of my three children and myself?

When filing my 2018 taxes, they were rejected because I needed to verify my 2017 AGI. After verifying, they were still rejected and I was instructed to mail my taxes in. Do I need to fill out the forms on paper, send copies of my W2s, or include my 2017 tax return? Additionally, do I need to file an extension, and how does this affect my refund?

I live in California, a community property state, and I'm confused about how community property works for tax purposes when filing married but separately. Are we supposed to claim half of what the other makes on our tax returns? Isn't that double taxation? How does this affect our tax burden?

I'm a Montreal-based business owner setting up payroll for a Swedish remote worker. I'm using ADP for payroll but am unsure about the state employer and employee tax obligations for this Swedish employee. How should I handle this situation?
