I just filed my tax return as a married couple (and received my return today!), so I just checked my UFile to confirm -- we were definitely taxed as individuals, not on our combined income.
I actually benefited from getting married, as my wife had non-refunding tax credits (a transit pass) that she could transfer to me. The amount was minimal though.
CalgaryFan1988, I've gone from receiving a big refund to owing money twice in my life -- and in both cases, it was due to starting a new job and not having enough money deducted for taxes by my employer (which they SHOULD do, but I've been burned twice!). Just a thought....
