Where you are married is irrelevant. Being legally married is relevant. You file MFJ or MFS if you are married on 12/31/08. About 10 states are community property states, and doesn't matter where you were married if you reside there, that applies.





Basically where you were married is irrelevant for most purposes. Unless it is a type of marriage not recognized by your state. IRS does not recognize same sex unions, nor do many states.

No, getting married out of state doesn't affect your taxes.





The state where you live determines if you are in a community property state, not where you got married.
The state where you actually get married is irrelevant as long as it is a legal marriage recognized by your own state.
