Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you're filing jointly, any refund you have coming will most likely be offset by any student loan debt of yours.

HOWEVER... you could either

  • File with the married filing separate status, or, what's generally a better solution,
  • File an "Injured Spouse" form that would allow your husband to get his portion of the refund from your married filing joint return.

For more information on the second option, please see the TurboTax FAQ "How do I file Form 8379, Injured Spouse Allocation?" below.

You might also look at the TurboTax FAQ "Is it better for a married couple to file jointly or separately?" to see what's entailed with that option.
