One aspect of many troubled marriages is lack of trust. If you have lost trust in your spouse's (or ex-spouse's) financial dealings, you will naturally worry about your own liabilities. Will the IRS come after you for debts incurred when your ex-husband or ex-wife refused to file taxes or did not manage payroll taxes correctly? If so, what can you do to rescue yourself from this unfair situation?
Fortunately, There Is A Legal Solution When One Spouse Has Committed Tax Fraud
The federal government recognizes that one person's tax omissions may not represent the will of a spouse who did not know or participate. Innocent spouse relief was designed to alleviate unjust situations where one spouse was clearly the victim of fraud perpetrated by their spouse or ex-spouse.
The good news is you may be able to get out of tax debt due to the misdeeds or fraud committed by your spouse. This can be the ray of hope for a better future once the divorce is over or once you and your spouse find a way forward for your relationship despite vexing tax debt that was his or her responsibility and not yours.
