Bill overview
The Refund Equality Act of 2025 aims to ensure that legally married same-sex couples receive accurate tax refunds, even if they filed their taxes before the Supreme Court’s ruling on marriage equality. This bill extends the time limit for amending tax returns to account for changes in marital status resulting from that ruling. Specifically, it allows couples who previously filed separate tax returns instead of a joint return before 2013 to amend those returns and claim any missed refunds. The law focuses solely on correcting tax filings due to marital status changes.
