You can always file an 8379 - Injured Spouse Allocation with your return. The injured spouse form basically separates your income from your husband's. Then they issue a refund based on solely your husband's income. At least this way you will still get some portion of a refund. Now, filing the Injured Spouse slows your refund down considerably. Anywhere from 6-12 weeks. Good Luck.

If you filed joint returns with your ex -- or failed to file entirely -- you are jointly liable for the tax debt with your ex. If you file a joint return with your new spouse, any refund showing on that return can be captured by FMS against the old tax debt with your ex.
Your new spouse can avoid having his portion of the refund taken by attaching a Form 8379, Injured Spouse Allocation to your joint return. You should file a paper return to ensure that this is processed properly. The IRS will determine how much of the refund is allocatable to each of you and will pay your spouse his portion and retain yours against the tax debt with your ex.
