There are a couple of things to note when
filling out the injured spouse form. If
some of the boxes were not checked, then TurboTax will state you are not
eligible to file the form.
On the
screen titled “Tell Us More About Your
Situation” at least 3 boxes must be checked to qualify to file the Injured
Spouse form.
The box “I filed (or will file) a joint
return with my spouse (or former spouse)” must be checked.
The box “I am not required to pay the
past-due amount” must be checked.
Additionally,
at least one more box must be checked to indicate the type of debt that your
tax refund will be used to pay.
Please see
the picture below as a reference.
