BiBottomBoy Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 In a new campaign gay couples are now filling out their IRS tax forms as "married" and claiming the deductions even if the marriage is not legal in their state. They call it the Refuse To Lie campaign and hopes it brings gay marriage into the court system. http://jezebel.com/#!5788952/clever-gay-couples-use-tax-returns-to-challenge-doma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MsGuy Posted April 5, 2011 Members Share Posted April 5, 2011 Not unsurprisingly, the IRS has no sense of humor about folks using their 1040's as a vehicle for political protest. It gets really really really cranked up about stuff like this. Not recommended for people without a high tolerance for pain and suffering.

TotallyOz Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Great idea. I wonder if Dane or AJ are available for marriage? I would be willing to file as married. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
