After you file
Advice? I filed my return electronically at the beginning of February to find out 2 weeks later my refund was being garnished due to my husband's student loans. I am the sole income in our household. I mailed my injured spouse form 10 weeks ago and have not heard anything. There is no way to speak to the IRS as when you call it says they have no live reps, I've called the Department of Education who say since it was garnished in Feb before the Cares Act I will not get the auto refund as others who waited until March to file(don't get me started on that...). To the best of my knowledge I should receive full refund as I am not the one responsible for the debt. I'm worried my form wasn't received or was put away somewhere to never be found. I tried calling a taxpayer advocate today but have not heard back. Has anyone else experienced this? Should I amend my return and submit again electronically with injured spouse? Is it just taking an extra long time for processing? If I knew they received it I would feel much better about it but I have no way to confirm they did receive it. Any help is much appreciated.
