Possibly, however, it depends on how you filled out the forms. If you showed the allocation as all income and refund was yours and none of it was allocated to him, then it is possible that you would get it all back.

If you live in a community property state, then his debt is considered to be your debt so you would not likely get it all back, but it depends on the rules of your state.

It can take 8 weeks or longer for them to process your injured spouse form.
