How can I find out if my injured spouse claim was applied to my case. I mailed it in after my taxes were filed

His debt does not affect your stimulus check.

Go to irs get my payment, you will get the date your check will be mailed if you don’t have a direct payment on file. According to irs, it takes 8 weeks after a refund to get your 8379 form money back. We are in the same boat and it’s after 8 weeks now and nothing yet. Hope and pray to get it soon.

They will put another 846 on there for your amount to be deposited. If you have a 971 the next code should be 846 with a new amount after they split the refund.

Thank you for showing me how to check the status! I followed the steps and went to online tax transcripts. In my case, it shows the IRS received my injured spouse form.

If you want to know when you will get it, there will be code 846 (I have one before I submitted the injured spouse form) and now I need to wait for them to show another "846" that will show when I will receive my revised refund. I just checked last year's to be sure (this happened to me last year).

Based on what happened to me last year, below are the codes you may see:

• 971 Injured spouse claim received  (date it was received will show up)
• 766 Removed refund applied to non-IRS 04-15-2019 (will show date and amount you will likely receive as your new refund)
• 290 (not sure what this means but it looks like some changes were made based on additional information I provided)
• 846 Refund issued (this is the amount you will receive). If you submitted your injured spouse form after you filed taxes then you will see another 846 code with an earlier date, which is the amount garnished. It is this latest 846 that will show you what you will get back based on the injured spouse allocation. If you don't see this but it shows they received your form then you should keep checking.

Hope this helps! I still can't get anyone on the phone to check my status...

I will be more than happy cos I keep checking every minute. It’s like a nightmare and I only keep seeing 971 claim received

[Ariiyiike]

Thank you Nene, I’ll keep checking

[Ariiyiike]

Create an online irs account and once you logged into the account you opened, you will see it under account transcript

[michele714]

How do i get here

[Ariiyiike]

Irs.gov.

Once the page opens, you will see on the left side where it says create an account. Just create one by following the instructions and then you will be good to go.

I cant open a acount i dont have a credit card

[Ariiyiike]

It does not have to be a credit card, you can use a debit card and your account will not be charged 

[Christinagonzalez1]

It doesn't let me open an account because I don't have a credit card to verify my identity all I have is debit cards than they don't want step that is there any other way I can open an account with them

[Christinagonzalez1]

Can someone please help me how to find out if the IRS received my non injured spouse form and give me more information on how can I find that out nothing but I cannot open an account with the IRS because I don't have a credit card I have a debit card and they said my debit card they can't use it to match my identity

[Christinagonzalez1]

Can you please tell me if there's another way I can do my account because it's not letting me open another account because I don't have a credit card and they can't verify my identity through my debit card
