What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
I was married in 1992 and divorced in 2008. During the divorce, I found out that the taxes were not filed for two years and those years we owed taxes. The amount was about 9k.
We were ordered to both pay the taxes, equal amounts. I paid my half. He has not paid his.
Now the IRS is coming after me for the rest of the taxes. It was recommended that I file an injured spouse form, so I did. I thought the case had been dismissed, even received my return last year. But I received a call from the IRS the other day as a follow up to a letter (sent to my old address, which I now have).
What options do I have? I can take him to court for contempt, but that will take time. Do I have any other options?
