So your spouse is responsible for the taxes and you want out. Well the IRS wants to know why you signed the return in the first place! With woman's rights increasing, the IRS loves to deny the innocence of a spouse, saying that you should know better. Yes, men can be innocent spouses too. Be prepared to answer the question, "Why didn't you read the return when you signed it? Why did you think your non-filing, non tax paying husband was going to pay the taxes on the return 'this time'!". That tends to be the main issue to resolve. Also each spouse is separately liable for the whole thing.

I had a case where the husband was responsible for 95% of the tax liability, then became ill and was out of work. His wife divorced him for abuse. I filed an offer in compromise for him and got him out of most of the taxes. The IRS went after the wife for the balance. We filed an innocent spouse claim and lost. Her attorney, who did not practice IRS representation, was good at getting the husband to sign the divorce decree stating he would be liable for the full amount of tax. The IRS won't abide by state law in these matters. The divorce degree had no effect against the IRS. In attempting to relieve the wife from the taxes, we attempted to prove that due to her medical state, education level, and the advice of her attorney, she just quickly signed the return along with other papers, not even looking at the tax balance! She figured, why bother since she wasn't going to pay it anyway. She just wanted to get the divorce over with to stop the abuse from her husband. I tried to show that she signed under duress. The IRS still insisted that she should have understood her responsibility to pay the taxes when she signs a return. Community property states may be tougher on this issue. This case went to the Taxpayer Advocate and we finally won.

My other cases were successful because I was able to show that the innocent spouse had reason to believe that the husband was going to pay the tax as he always did in the past. You must also show why you didn't elect to file a separate return. Be prepared to have the non-requesting spouse answer an IRS letter asking his side of the story, so you better make nice if you want to win your claim. Your ex is allowed to be a witness against you, even in tax court!
