I filed joint w my incarcerated spouse. The check is issued in both our names. My bank won’t deposit it bc we don’t have a joint account. How am I supposed to deposit it?

My federal and state tax refund checks are made payable to me “and” my spouse, who is incarcerated. I filed jointly for us. My bank won’t allow me to deposit/cash it without having him present or having a joint account. We don’t have a joint account. What should I do?
