Innocent Spouse Relief is a program that allows taxpayers to avoid being held responsible for underreported or unpaid taxes caused by a spouse or former spouse when filing a joint tax return.

This is where Innocent Spouse Relief comes in—it allows you to be legally separated from your spouse’s tax mistakes and have your liability removed.
