Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you filed an injured spouse form with your 2019 taxes, you do not have to do anything else. The IRS is aware of the error, and they are going to fix it. When is the only real issue, as not all departments in the IRS have reopened. According to what I was told, as soon as the IRS fully reopens, they’ll send a return notice to the child support department pulling the injured spouse money back to the IRS and then it will be reissued. If you did NOT file an injured spouse form in 2019 tax filings, do so now. That will be required to get the return process started. Without an injured spouse form on file, all monies will be applied to the offset in full.
