Innocent Spouse
Many an unsuspecting spouse signs a joint return
without having any idea about the correctness of the
return prepared by the other spouse. By signing a joint
return, both spouses are obligating themselves to pay
the entire balance owed, including penalties and interest,
and any later amount found to be due and owing after
an audit. Not just one-half! Not just their share from
their income! All of it!
The "Innocent Spouse" provisions of the
tax law were enacted by Congress to give some relief
to one spouse who finds herself liable for her current
or ex-husband's tax debts.
- The innocent spouse must show she didn't know (or
have reason to know) of the husband's tax deficiency
- This
relief is not easily obtainable and should not
be attempted without the assistance of a tax professional
to fight for you
