Are You an
Injured Spouse?
You may be an injured spouse if you file a
joint return and all or part of your portion of
the overpayment was, or is expected to
be, applied (offset) to your spouse's
legally enforceable past-due federal tax,
state income tax, state unemployment
compensation debts, child support, or a
federal nontax debt, such as a student
loan
If needed you can amend the joint return to add their income but unless you were not married as of 12/31/2022 then you cannot change your filing status from married to separately after the filing deadline.
