I was notified by mail that the IRS offset the joint refund to go to my ex-husband's overdue child support, so I was thinking of filing an 8379 Form as an Injured Spouse to reclaim my refund money. Since child support has now been paid with the offset, does that mean the amount refunded to me (the injured spouse) by the IRS will be added to my ex-husband's taxes next year, or will he find out he owes that money sooner than when he submits his tax return next year?
