Yeah, he pays more in taxes than he would if they jointly filed. But the money his wife gets back + 700-1000/mo in EBT more than makes up for it. That's basically an extra 20 grand not taxed per year.

Since when do people get $700 plus in EBT

Idk how all states do it but in my state if you're "single" with children you can draw anywhere from 600-1200 depending on what you make.
