My son father owes back child support i already filed my taxes, will i receive whats is owed to me or should i have filled a certain part out when doing my taxes?

It sounds like your son's father owes you child support instead. If this is the case and he files a tax return with a refund, the IRS will take his refund and pay you whatever they can collect.

If you are filing a joint tax return with your son's father, you may want to file an injured spouse claim to maintain "your portion" of the refund from the tax return. You can mail the claim separate from your tax return.

Follow this path in TurboTax to find the injured spouse section:

1. Go to the Federal Taxes category.
2. Go to the Other Tax Situations subcategory
3. On the screen labeled Other Tax Situations, find the section labeled Other Tax Forms.
4. Click start or update on Miscellaneous Tax Forms.
5. Click start or update on Report and Innocent or Injured Spouse Claim.
6. Answer yes on the next screen.
7. Hit continue on the screen with the series of years, and the subsequent screen with the form.
8. Choose an applicable state or somewhere else and hit continue.
9. Choose the following options:
1. I filed (or will file) a joint return
2. All or part of our refund will be applied to a federal tax bill, child support, federal nontax debt, or a state income tax bill.
3. I am not required to pay the past due debt and hit continue
10. Answer the withholding question on the next screen.
11. Yes, you want to claim with the return
12. Enter your information.
13. Choose the injured (non-owing spouse).
14. Continue with the remaining screens.
