If my husband owes back child support and we file jointly will the irs keep my portion of the refund?

Yes they will take your refund. You can file married filing separately but this also has adverse effects on your refund.If my husband owes back child support and we file jointly will the irs keep my portion of the refund?
yes they will but you can file an injured spouse form with your return and you should get your portion of the refundIf my husband owes back child support and we file jointly will the irs keep my portion of the refund?
Yes IRS will send all the refund to the child support not unless you filed injured spouse form.
Yes, unless you file an injured spouse form 8379 with the IRS. Then any amount that is owed to you will be sent to you instead. You can file this form up to 3 months after you filed your taxes all by itself if you already filed. Or if you haven't filed yet, simply attach it to your return. Filing an injured spouse form automatically delays your return at least 3 months. So it will be around 3 months from the time you file the injured spouse form before you get your share of the return sent to you.
