I didn't work, filed injured spouse with my new wife's taxes, but they still took exactly half of her return. Why is this? She isn't listed on my debts b4 marriage.
My wife and I got married in July 2018. I owe child support, student loans and other debts from a previous marriage. I have been disabled since 2016 and have been unable to work. I am still going through the process.
When my wife and I filed taxes this year, we did so as married, jointly. At the same time, we filed the injured spouse form so she would not lose her refund, as she was the sole provider.
However, we got our refund last week, and only half was deposited. Exactly half. With no explanation as to where the other half is. Our only assumption is that they took half because of my debts. But they aren't supposed to be able to take her refund if we file the injured spouse form, right?
