Exactly my point. And I am on this posting board with no other information so they would never be able to find out. Ok I did say what states I am or am going to be in. but Wyoming is a big state. So is Ohio. I seriously doubt the AG is going to go after me. Now I could see them going after me and/or hubby if HE won something and put it into my name, but that isn't the case here.
Really? And you know the AG personally?

Fine, you take a law school student's advice. But the next time you come here asking why you are in prison remember what an attorney who GRADUATED law school told you.

and by the way genius, Injured Spouse ONLY applies to your 1/2 of the marital asset.:rolleyes:
I would think an attorney from Ohio might have something to say that would be relevant but then again she got a law student's advice.

That's actually not correct. It would be correct for a community property state, but not for a non-community property state.

Injured Spouse applies to anything that is attributable to her on the tax return. If the 1099 for the car is going to be issued to her, and her only, then it would be attributable to her.
Also, as well as line 21 "other income" for the value of the car, she is likely to have a capital loss when she sells it, since its highly unlikely that she will sell it at "basis".

And again, you ASSUME. WYOMING is an equitable distribution state. NOT community property and WOMING is where the lotter winnings are awarded, regardless of where the parent lives afterward.:rolleyes:

I said that your response was correct in ONLY community property states. In an equitable distribution state your response was wrong. Are you really going to argue with someone who professionally prepares a good 100 injured spouse forms every year, in an equitable distribution state?

Wow! While you two fight it out don't you think it's AMAZING the lenghts some will go not to pay back child support. Pay your husband's half and be done with it, what do you think about the kids who didn't get the CS would say about YOUR new car?
Just a thought.

Truthfully she has NO DUTY OR LEGAL OBLIGATION TO PAY HUBBY's CHILD SUPPORT. Why should she pay it. And why should her income go to pay it? Why should any of HER property be used to pay it?

Exactly. And obviosly they didn't read the part where I said he PAYS $500 A MONTH! I was going to add in that LdiJ is right. This is not considered lottery winnings. It is considered income and will posted on my tax return next year a 1099 in the colume that says INCOME. Not lottery winnings. I have TWO kids who are still under the age of 18. The child that "gets" the support is 20. He doesn't even see a dime of the money my husband sends in every month, it goes to back pay. (Up till he was 18 he was seeing that money though.) So, if I used MY money to pay this debt of HIS off, his son would never see any of it anyways. Most of the money that is back pay is interest the state taked on, not even real missed payemts.

Breeze is really gonna hate this one too, and I am sure I am somehow gong to be "breaking the law again"...but in Wyoming there is no state taxes. So, I am not going to have to pay any state taxes on the money I get from selling the car either, cause once I move to Ohio it will not be income that I earned in the state. I earned the money in Wyoming.

Well, if your husband had paid the child support in the first place, he wouldn't owe back support with interest.

While you do not have a legal obligation to pay HIS support with your income that still does not go against what BB said. Truthfully. And depending on when you move to Ohio after winning in Wyoming you may have to report it here. And you very well may be wrong about not reporting the money you get from selling the car -- because that is DIFFERENT money from the income won.
