Tax Liability and Innocent Spouse Relief
Joint and several liability is the term used to deem both parties on a joint tax return liable for any taxes, penalties, and fees that are assessed. The IRS does not have the capacity or time to determine if one spouse is more liable than another, so it is assumed that both are and since each spouse signs the tax return, they both agree to this.
There is one major implication that comes along with this and it includes collection on behalf of both parties. The IRS can go after the married couple together and individually for the debt instead of one or the other.
If you are not responsible for the tax liability assessed against you and your spouse, you can file for innocent spouse relief and if granted, you would be relieved from the taxes due. You should contact a qualified tax professionals to help you through the steps because there are criteria which you must meet.
