If I file married seperate will my taxes be amended for student loans if my wife has no income

Let me restate your question to be sure I'm answering it correctly. Your wife has past due student loans for which the IRS will garnish her tax refund for payment. You want to know if you file a return using the Married Filing Separately filing status for just yourself, will the IRS garnish your refund to satisfy her debt? Have I got that right? If so, the answer is No.
