💰  Tax

I normally file taxes for my husband and I, and this year we filed 'married filing separately' to get more tax returns due to being in a higher tax bracket if we filed together. I filed my taxes separately and filed the kids under him to get more back. I owed taxes this year, so I used his tax refund to pay off my tax debt, and then we paid bills with the remainder. We separated months after filing our taxes. I am trying to be cordial with him and asking him to help with expenses for his children, but he is using the taxes as a weapon against me and refusing to help. I am trying to do what's right and find out if I will be held responsible for paying him back since we were married at the time of filing taxes.
