My huband and I are filing a joint tax return, but I am the only one that had income for 2006. I will have to file a injured spouse form since he has child support arrearages, and I am due a refund on federal and state. On the form 8379 injured spouse part 2 shouldn't everything for me go in (b) allocated to injured spouse? Turbo Tax put my info under (c) allocated to other spouse. I have been trying to contact them, but not having much luck. I am not going to send it in until I am clear how to do this. My state is not a 50/50 state also.

Yes your information should be in column B, If the program continues you might want to print the form, fill it in and mail it with your return

If you're the only one with income, then yes, the entire amounts should be allocated to you. Check the order you entered the names initially, and be sure that the one for "spouse" is the same way you entered your info from W-2 or whatever form you have.

yes you are correct. when you click on "injured spouse" form does it give you the option to choose which spouse is injured? this form cannot be e-filed either way. you can fill it out manually using your federal tax return. note that it will take up to 8 weeks to get your refund.

Don't use TurboTax. It screws up more than it solves. Please get a real accountant (not H&R Blockheads) to do your return.
