I need help deciding whether to file married separately or jointly because my husband and I are separated but not yet divorced, and I don’t want him to be able to claim our children as dependents. We have a child support case pending, and he will owe me many months of backpay. My main concern is how to file to ensure the backpay is taken from his tax refund.

Why didn't I receive the $1,200 economic impact payment last year, and now I just received $600? My name is Sandra Ramos, I am 54 years old, and I had 2 dependents last year but not this year. I recently got divorced.

I am married with two children and another on the way. Last year, my W4 was filled out as married but withheld at a single rate, claiming one exemption for myself. I want to change it to married, filing jointly, and claim my two children since I am the higher earner between me and my wife. I am having trouble understanding step 2 on the new W4 form, which I apparently need to fill out because my spouse also works. Can you help me understand this step?

I need to know how my stimulus payment was put into an unknown account. The first payment went into account 7091, but the second one says it went to account 6805. How did someone change my information?

I need to know if I can get a refund check even though I haven't filed my taxes in years because I have been claiming zero on my payroll checks. I am located in Toledo, Ohio, 55 years old, single, and without minor dependents. I recently found out that not filing my income tax returns has caused me trouble with the IRS.
