Excerpt:
According to Janis Cowhey, a tax attorney and partner at Marcum LLP’s Modern Family & LGBT Services unit, “Married couples who file separately could also face limitations on the adoption tax credit and could lose out on up to $13,000 per child.” Say you’re marrying a person who already has a child, Cowhey says you can adopt your partner’s child before the wedding to collect the tax credit.
