If you filed for Innocent Spouse, can you get back your tax refund?
 
Will I receive a refund of all amounts I paid, if relief is granted?
It depends upon the provision under which relief is granted.
If innocent spouse relief is granted under section 6015(b), refunds are allowable for amounts paid on or after July 22, 1998.
If separation of liability is granted under section 6015(c), no refunds are allowable.
If equitable relief is granted under section 6015(f), refunds may be allowed depending on whether it is for an understatement or an underpayment case.
The requesting spouse must establish that he or she provided the funds used to make the payment for which he or she seeks a refund.
Understatements – Refunds are allowed for installment agreement (if not defaulted) payments made after the request for relief is filed.
Underpayments – Refunds are allowed for payments made after 7-22-98 unless the payments were made jointly with the non-requesting spouse, payments were made with the return or payments were made by the non-requesting spouse.
Note: all refunds are subject to Internal Revenue Code section 6511. This code section only allows refunds for payments made within 2 years after the tax was paid or 3 years after the return was filed whichever is later.
