Is there a seperate injured spouse form for state taxes in wv?

Yes. West Virginia has its own injured spouse form (Form WV-8379). TurboTax does not support this form. However, you can prepare it by hand and attach it to a paper return and file by mail.

 

West Virginia says:

  1. Check the injured spouse box on the front of the return;
  2. Complete the West Virginia Injured Spouse Allocation Form, WV-8379; and
  3.  Enclose the completed form with your West Virginia personal income tax return.

DO NOT check the injured spouse box unless you qualify as an injured spouse and have enclosed the completed form with your return. This will cause a delay in the processing of your refund.

 

Refer to page 19 of the 2021 West Virginia tax form instructions.

Yes, but unfortunately, TurboTax does not support it. You could prepare the return with TurboTax and mail it with the form.  

 

If your spouse owes a debt for which you are not liable and you are expecting a refund from your joint income tax return, you may file as an injured spouse by checking the box on the first page of the return and submitting a completed form WV/8379 Injured Spouse Allocation form.
