The Marriage Calculator

The Department of Health and Human Services has developed The Marriage Calculator. The Web-based tool can calculate the "cost of marriage" for a specific couple in a specific State - how welfare programs and tax policies might interact to create penalties and/or incentives and how they differ across States and across different income and family structures. The Urban Institute, under contract to ACF, developed this new Web-based tool.
