If you filed your Injured Spouse, the IRS should take only your husband's portion of the joint refund, not yours - that was Injured Spouse is; it divides the refund between two spouses so that only his amount is taken by the IRS.  Please note that refunds are delayed when that happens; it may take 12-14 weeks for the Injured Spouse to be processes.
