Innocent Spouses - Relief From Taxes
Historically, tax issues arising from bad marriages fell into the category of ?better or worse? for marriages. The IRS granted no innocent spouse tax relief, but has changed its views.
Tax Relief
When a marriage has problems, finances are almost always one of the elements that contribute to the strife. This can be particularly true where spouses file a joint tax return, which the both sign as tax payers. If the information provided on the tax return is false or inaccurate, the IRS has historically viewed both spouses as liable for the resulting assessments. If the relevant taxes were not paid, the IRS would also look to both spouses to pay the delinquent amount. In worse case scenarios, this can include criminal charges for tax evasion.
