I married last year at the end of August, but if I file jointly with my husband, the government will garnish everything due to his student loans, and there goes my earned income and child tax credits!!! What do I do? Are there any loop-holes?
What%26#039;s my filing status????
Bostonianinmo is correct. Your only options for filing are married joing or married separate - married separate disqualifies you for the credits and their are no loopholes to get around this. The form 8379 is an %26quot;Injured Spouse Claim%26quot; and it will get you the portion of refund that would be yours separate from your husbands.
What%26#039;s my filing status????
File a joint return. Attach a Form 8379 to protect your share of the refund.
What%26#039;s my filing status????
you can file married but filing seperate....i would ask whoever is doing your taxes which way would be the best....i know that for child support garnishment, they won%26#039;t take the other person%26#039;s refund, they only take the one that owes, so maybe it%26#039;s the same for loans
What%26#039;s my filing status????
You can file a joint return and file an injured spouse form. The refund will be split based on the amount due to each person%26#039;s income and withholding, and only his part will be taken.
