Awareness, Banking/Money/Finance, General A few years back I wrote about filing an injured spouse IRS 8379 and receive a massive response from people all over the word. There is a problem when you get your tax return and realize that it is not what you were expecting because of your spouse’s past debt obligations. Or maybe you didn’t receive a tax return at all. There is a solution to being married and still receiving your part of the money. Often times, in community property states your spouse may not even worked all year but you filed together one can still possibly receive their portion of the tax rebate when one files the injured spouse form.

I would like to share one major deal that happen this year with someone I know in processing an injured spouse form with an amended return. By all means if you are a first timer, you can ignore what “where’s my refund” says because once the IRS actually starts to process the return the site will not be updated with any refund information.

Why would you file form 8379? Well, if you are married and your spouse has past due obligations that have affected their tax refund
then in order for you to get you part of the funds, you can file form 8379 and the IRS will give the injured spouse their portion of the refund. The other part will go toward the obligations.
My first question was, does it really take 11 weeks to process if it is file electronically. Some of the answers that I received stated: (more…)
