First year being on H1-B for a full tax year and curious, do we typically get a refund or owe? Under the most general of circumstances, as obviously people could have contributed more to 401K, etc.

I owed last year, but wondering if that was just because I was on F1 for 9 months of the year, or if that will be the trend for the duration of H1-B

Depends on what withholdings you declare. If it's too high, you will owe and if it's low, then you will get a refund

Ladies how do you manage your relationship when your spouse holds you to what you promised you would do before you got married but then you realize you can’t do it.

I told him I can’t do it for that long again but he said “we’ll see, you just need to push through”.
