Hello... Texan here. I was looking for info on a release form of some kind, I thought it might be different than the injured spouse form, but guess that's it.
Just wanted to add some info that may be helpful to some. The first time my exes taxes were intercepted was last year. It took 4 months for the payment to be released to me (which made me happy bc I thought the wait was 6 months). There's also a way to see when that payment posted, without your ex having to tell you anything. If you log on to the child support site, the date and amount will be in your payment record (not yet in your payments though). This year if I get it in the same amount of time I will get it around the first or 2nd week in Sept.
It's a little frustrating though, bc now I think he pays his child support even less often bc in his mind he thinks 'oh well, they'll take it out of my taxes eventually'. But now he's remarried and just found out he's not working. I'll stop there bc if I don't this post will go on for paragraphs. Haha.
Good luck to y'all. I think IF you have a good relationship with the ex and new spouse (or at least no hostility) and ask for the release to be signed, they will sign it. At the same time, I don't want to bring up the form he may have no idea about; and then get $ taken away. I think I'll stay mum on it this year. Unfortunately, it's him I trust less than the new wife.
