more bad news but you really need to know what the tax laws are when there is a court-ordered annulment.
A court decree of annulment makes a marriage not only invalid but nonexistent, as if it never occurred. Therefore, a couple who have been filing taxes jointly during the period of their marriage must revisit those filings and amend them. According to IRS rules, you must file Form 1040X titled "Amended U.S. Individual Income Tax Return," for each year that you filed as married that is not closed by the statute of limitations. In general, this limit applies to returns filed more than three years before the annulment decree.
