My husband owes taxes to IRS from before our marriage in 2016. I am going to get a refund this year as we are filing joint and he is unemployed. How do I get the refund?

If you file an Injured Spouse form with your joint return, it'll protect your portion of any refund due.  Here's how: https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/1910698-how-do-i-file-form-8379-injured-spouse-allocation
