form 8379 injured spouse?

How long does it usually take to receive a reply from the IRS? I sent the form 2 months ago and Id like a general idea on what the normal timeline is. Also I thought the IRS was suppose to hold the money for back child support for 6 months for this exact reason.. to give time for the 8379 to be filed.. but it was already applied to the account. Does this mean Im outof luck? Any advice is appreciated

Update:

yes I have checked the where is my refund.. all it has is the original refund info- nothing regarding the injured spouse

    it takes 2-3 months sometimes longer to get a refund from filing injured spouse.

    the refund will be held for 6 months since you filed a joint return with your spouse,it just says applied to the debt but the custodial parent haven't gotten it yet the agency who had it offset will get it and hold it for 6 months allowing you time to file injured spouse.you should get a letter from the treasury offset program or fms stating the refund was offset and that you can file injured spouse.

    in order to get the status of the injured spouse you must call the irs at 1-800-829-1040 because that info will not be available through where's my refund on irs.gov.the irs should have some info on your injured spouse claim within 8 weeks of them receiving it.

    Source(s): i filed injured spouse this year and last so i'm very familiar with the procedure.

    it's bureaucracy

    IRS should give you some letter or something (also to the dad with delinquent child support you're married to now)

    unfortunately right now is very difficult time to get through to IRS

    have you checked your refund out on Where's My Refund at irs?

    what's to be questioned is the skill of allowing those women to construct their shallowness, conquer their insecurities and splendor supportive relationship. Can or could somebody be the pioneer. I easily have seen you Tyra do it on your first teach (the females camp you began interior the States) I seen in Malaysia. in spite of the incontrovertible fact that it grew to become into at the back of schedule by skill of months i grew to become into enthralled by skill of the potential of having the ability to help the females you meant with the aid of your guy or woman way. and that i will say it back: "What are the skill available for some communities to help those women?" we are all born with a purpose in this international, abilities, techniques, strengths and weaknesses. The media does damaging injury to youthful impressionable minds. besides the incontrovertible fact that, I easily have observed at the instant that there are greater advertisements and greater idols being advertised that are actually not the twiglet skinny variety. this is a robust initiate yet we want much greater selection in that element. the subject with the media is they don't permit human beings see the certainty in effortless terms the finished product .. those so stated as fashions have flaws in simple terms like absolutely everyone.
