If you have already filed your return, you can still file the Form 8379 by mail.  The following TurboTax FAQ explains how. https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3326788

Can I keep them from taking my federal

If you did not file a Form 8379 Injured Spouse, you would not be able to prevent the government from taking your refund to pay for your spouse's debt.  To file a Form 8379, here are the steps:

• Sign in to your account, select Pick up where you left off
• At the right upper corner, in the search box, type in "injured spouse" and Enter
• Select Jump to injured spouse 
• Follow prompts 
• Make sure to skip the screens related to the innocent spouse.
