Husband Keeps Joint Tax Refund All for Himself
Dear Abby | November 29th, 2025 | Letter 3 of 3
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I file taxes together every year. I work, and he does as well. But when we get the tax refund, he never gives me a dime. How should I feel or what should I do about this? -- STILL WAITING IN PENNSYLVANIA.
DEAR STILL WAITING: If you are working and contributing financially, then you should be entitled to some of that refund. That your husband would refuse to share with you is selfish and controlling. How should you feel? The words frustrated and angry come to mind. What is he doing with the refund money? Could he be applying it to next year's taxes? What you should do about it depends upon how assertive you are willing to be.
