Thank you so much you have been very helpful also have one more question if he's on disability and he owes back taxes from where he used to work befor he became disabled will that affect my taxes if we file married-jointly?


If he has a tax debt then the IRS will seize the tax refund when you file a joint tax return.  The IRS will apply the refund to the back taxes owed and if the refund satisfies the debt then the IRS will send the remainder of the tax refund to you.  If the refund does not satisfy the debt then the IRS will send you a bill in the mail requesting payment.

You can submit a Form 8379, Injured Spouse Allocation with your joint tax return to prevent the IRS from seizing your portion of the federal tax refund.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for a Form 8379 - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/accessing/help/how-do-i-file-form-8379-injured-spouse-allocation/0...
