[quote]One question: If there are 2 people grossing 25k a year each (12.50/hr) they are likely going to be taxed at a slightly lower rate than one person making 50k. Am I right or wrong about this?[/quote]
If they are filing a joint return, it should not matter if it’s 25k each or 50k single-income.
If we were talking about higher amounts (like 150k vs 75k+75k gross), it’s slightly better to have a single income, because social security and SDI taxes are capped. But that’s not a significant difference.
