I amended my return but the injured spouse dosent show in my papers why?

[Critter]

Ok ... more info needed.   Did you file your original return and was it fully processed ?   Did they keep the refund ?  Did you file an injured spouse form with that return ?   If so did you get the original return yet ?

If you did file already why are you amending ?  Was it just to add the injured spouse form ?

Yes I filed original and it was accepted if that helps. . I received my state but federal went toward husbands debt. I amended the return to add the injured spouse.

Ok ... you do not amend the return to add a 8379 form however  using the amendment program and completing the 8379 interview section the program should produce an 8379 form you can Ink Sign and mail in.  If you have not done so yet please mail in the form now ... expect it to take 14 weeks or more to process. 

8379 is the Injured spouse form.  

To file an injured spouse go to
Federal Taxes or Personal (for H&B version)
Other Tax Situations
Other Tax Forms
Miscellaneous Tax Forms - click the Start or Update button
7th item, Report an injured or innocent spouse claim
