If
you are a member of a married same-sex couple,
then the U.S. Supreme Court's
decision to strike
down the Defense
of Marriage Act could have a substantial effect on many aspects of your financial life. You may want to consider, for example, filing an amended income tax return if
you now qualify
for deductions or credits available
to married couples under federal law. Since same-sex couples are now eligible for the estate tax exemption
available to surviving
spouses, it may also be time to review your estate planning.
Those are just a few of the changes
affecting qualifying same-sex
couples. If you have questions
about the decision's impact and what it means to your financial
situation, be sure to contact us
