“남편 벌금을 내가 낸 세금 중 REFUND받을 돈에서 COLLECT해갈수 있나요?”---->It depends. Your state, CA, tax department is able to take part or all of your state tax refund for your spouse's debt, but you may be able to avoid the collection under certain circumstances. The debt that can be taken from your tax refund includes income taxes owed to the state and back child support payments. The state tax department checks your and your spouse's Social Security numbers with the debt database once you file your taxes jointly with your spouse or as married filing separately. A positive result determines how much of your tax refund is taken along with your spouse's. All of your refund is taken if the amount is not more than sufficient to pay the total debt owed, but you would receive the difference if your refund exceeds the money due. You would receive a notice from the state tax department if your refund is intercepted for your spouse's debt. The notice states how much was taken and which creditor the money was or will be paid to. You may be legally responsible for your spouse's debt even if you are not the main name on the account. A debt you co-signed for, like a federal student loan, is your responsibility if not paid, and you cannot receive injured spouse relief. I guess you need to contact CA FTB for more information in detail.
