Yes, I am in the same boat! But Child Support has told my husband he owes nothing and never did! They have offset our taxes last 3 years and this year Child Suport said it was all a big glitch in the computer and had happened to many over the prior years. Child Suport specifically told me I could file and everything would be fine. Nope!! It wasn't!! They took my federal taxes and my stimulus! This is ridiculous! Child support is a scam. Orange County child support needs to be investigated!! Treasury Department should have made the stimulus money completely exempt from any type of offset. People are struggling right now and any life line people like us had for our own children is gone!! We are in the middle of a pandemic. And most people aren't aware of how long it takes to get money back when you do file an injured spouse separately, after you have already filed. Last year it took me 8 months to get anything back! Even though child support says we owe nothing and never did! I would have filed one with it this year if I thought same thing was gonna happen. I spoke to turbo tax member last night and no guidelines have been set for people like us except to file an injured spouse. I asked if it was a separate one from the federal taxes. He didn't know!
