Filing Status
  
Married? Single? Dead? Well, maybe not.
Death and taxes, right? But not both at the same time...and yeah, that's what this term is about.
How are you filing your taxes (not your nails). Why does this status thing even matter?
Well, there are often different tax rates for those filing as a partnership (i.e. married couple) versus those going solo. Maybe that fact will help you, tentative fiance, nix the cold feet.
