Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You cannot use the injured spouse form on a tax return where you are filing as Married Filing Separately.

 

You should be filing as Married Filing Jointly as it is much more advantageous from a tax standpoint then filing separately.  When filing jointly you can include the Form 8379 for injured spouse with the tax return so that your spouse's portion of any federal tax refund cannot be seized for your unpaid child support debt.
