Injured spouse and stimulus payment

[mmartinez4069]

That was my question. How to file a second form?

Noncustodial parents need to start a class action law suit because all of our rights are being violated. Bet you guys didn’t know noncustodial parents who chose not to work and can in Indiana at least can have there income on child support calculator can be set to more then minimum wage because they are capable of working and chose not too. Custodial parent get wages garnished to point they can’t live for back child support, drivers license taken, and etc.

@Ahriel @I am just so livid that they were not expecting these glitches to happen without backlash or solutions

Our stimulus check was offset by $1,200 dollars due to husband's back child support. I filed an 8379 form with 2019 and 2020 taxes. Do I have to file another 8379 to get my share of the stimulus money? We haven't received tax refund either. Thank You, Rochelle Huland

@terdsmit78 @You are lucky I filed in February too and have yet to get my taxes I am never this lucky. And then for this to happen it was the stick that broke the camels back this has to stop. We work hard and have to wait every year for our money. Now this is a travesty

@Msandfort17  What IRS department did you talk too. I can’t get through to nobody

I am in the same predicament as everyone on this page in regards to my stimulus money was also taken in addition with my husbands for back child support. I filed our 2019 tax return along with the form 8379 and we received our two letters yesterday stating that they took my 1200.00 and put towards his back child support. The letter also stated to fill out the form 8379 which I was about to fill out until I read these posts. I also would like to know if the 2nd stimulus package goes into affect for the 2000.00 a month for 6 months are they going to take that from us also? I heard that they are in discussion in regards to a 6 month stimulus package. There has got to be something that can be done about this!

@FlaLibrarian  Oh boy. Yeah what do we put in the injured spouse for the stimulus? It would be nice for the irs to say something to let all of us know how to file and what to write! Do we put the information from our 2019 taxes? Ahhh this is so aggravating

@Michelleb1480  I seen all of this, but again they are not accepting paper forms so how do we file it?

If the IRS already processed my 2019 tax return with the Injured Spouse form & we already received our tax return, but we just received a letter in the mail stating that the 3400.00 received for this pandemic will be applied to my husbands back child support. If I do not need to resubmit the injured spouse form, then how will the IRS “process” this form again? My husband is a disabled veteran so he has no income to claim, plus the 2 children are my children & now his ex wife will get my payment of 1200 plus my 2 children at 1000. HOW DO I FIX THIS?

The IRS Q&A number 21 states that if you filed your taxes with the injured spouse form, you DO NOT need to file another form. It also does not say when we will receive our money, though. It seems like they did this backwards, since we all have already received the offset letters. Even if they give us our money eventually, it looks like we will only receive 50%, meaning that any money for your dependent children will possibly go to the ex. I will only receive $500, even though I have two small children. There is also a petition on change.org. Just search for injured spouse. Not sure if the petition will do anything, but it doesn't hurt to get some visibility.

@Drie  Exactly what I’m wondering!! Uhhgg

I already got my taxes and filed injured spouse and received all my tax money(so it was already processed) , but they still took my stimulus payment.
