Hi Jason, my husband and I filed married filing jointly as well and my refund was taken to offset his student loans. I am the sole provider of my home as my husband stays home with our children. I do agree it is completely unfair. I filed the injured spouse form as well and I am waiting to hear back.
I too had to file form 8379 after I found out that my tax return was offset to pay my husbands student loans. I just mailed my form off yesterday. Please let me know what the process entails thanks much.
