Greetings. You don’t have to prove that she signed the forms, only that you filed a joint return. The debt is clearly marital, unless there was some fraud or some other issue which you are not mentioning. Thank you.

My attorney is drafting a order that will state I will maintain all debt including the 2003 tax audit in exchange that she want ask for alimony. I’ve gotten very frustrated with my attorney and the system, no one seems to give a ****, I’m truly getting screwed (as her parellegal seems to think and the custody coordinator as well) but theres is no avenue for help unless you got money, I mean you can’t even sit, show evidence and explain your situation without paying a fee. HOW CAN I GET HELP???
my husband and i also had a tax debt for 2003. when we did our taxes one of my w-2’s (part-time job) wasn’t used as it came late. when the irs contacted us the mail was sent to our marital home where i no longer lived. he sent in the injured spouse docs, told the irs he didn’t know anything about my part-time income, never saw any paperwork, etc all of which was a lie. the irs believe him and i ended up having to pay both fed and state back taxes.
Greetings. I wish I had a good answer for you, but alimony and equitable distribution trials take significant preparation and time, and that costs money. Thank you.

Me and STBX has been audited for 2003, we had filied joint but they are sending all info to marital address(where I live) but is addressed in both of our name, her attorney say she(stbx) knows nothing about the 2003 taxes (we were together then) so she shouldn’t be responsible for half of the $6k that has to be paid back, they are asking for the signed forms, now my question is how do can you prove in court that she signed the forms when the sign form was sent to the IRS inwhich I contacted and they will not send me copies of the signed forms.
