To the average person, Innocent Spouse and Injured Spouse are the same. In a sense they are. They both have a common denominator of one spouse requesting tax relief from the other spouse’s back taxes or tax debt.
You are an injured spouse if you filed a joint return with the other spouse and the IRS kept your share of the refund because of your spouse’s tax debt. If you are an injured spouse you usually are not part of the liability.
In order to claim the injured spouse with a beneficial tax resolution you must have paid federal tax. If you are a homemaker and you did not pay part of the tax withheld on the tax return you cannot claim the injured spouse.

The new law is named SB 2361 and requires a surety bond for temporary work camp housing, and more specifically the installation and deconstruction of said work camps. The owner of the work camp must provide a surety bond to the city/county where the work camp is being setup. The city/county will determine the appropriate bond amount.
George Osborne described it as a way to ‘simplify the tax system’ while critics have called it the ‘Granny Tax’. Whichever way you look at it this is the most controversial and talked-about measure to come from the Budget. Of course the economic climate means that few will have been surprised by a lack of good news in this Budget, but is this latest measure really fair?
What is the ‘Granny Tax’?
It is effectively a change to the personal allowance – the amount you can earn each tax year, tax-free. The allowance for those under 65 in the new tax year (starting from 6 April 2012) is £8,105. If you are 65 to

Having your federal income tax refund deposited to your checking account takes about two weeks, as opposed to the six to eight weeks it takes for a paper check refund to arrive. Unfortunately, according to the FDIC, there are about 30 million households that miss out on this luxury because they don’t have a bank account. Often, the solution is a tax refund anticipation loan, which results in high interest rates and less money back.
Prepaid Card for Your Federal Income Tax Refund
Prepaid cards are an excellent way for those without bank accounts to get their tax refund. Instead of waiting for a paper check to arrive or turning to a refund anticipation loan, they can have their refund automatically deposited to a prepaid card. Th
