Deductions & credits

Ok ... first if you have no income on the return then even if you file an injured spouse form none of the refund is due you since your income was zero.   Now ... the fix for this is to NOT have a refund ... if any of this refund is from taxes that was withheld from your wages then STOP that from happening then you don't lose that money. But if any of your refund is from refundable credits there is nothing you can do.
