How do you get your wife back after separate?

The answer depends on why the wife left and if there is love still present. Marriage counseling is a good start.


My ex wife owe over $20,000.00 in back taxes. Years owed 95,98,99, and 2000.I recently filed this missing years and now have a fairly accurate assessment of what we owe. Unable to pay without filing Chapter 7 or 13.Income is stretched to the limit. ?

If she is your ex-wife, you probably aren't liable for her back taxes. Usually, your legal separation agreement will stipulate that you are each responsible for your own taxes. If so, I would think you're off the hook for this.

Husband dies leaves unpaid income taxes filing jointly is wife responsible if there is no estate in Indiana?

Joint filers are both responsible for the entire tax bill. If the unpaid taxes are from a year that the couple filed jointly, the wife is fully responsible for any unpaid taxes unless she can meet the qualifications for innocent spouse relief. After the filing deadline, a joint return cannot be amended to separate returns. If there are unpaid taxes from 2008, the wife can still file a separate return for 2008. If a joint return has been filed for 2008, they have until April 15, 2009 to amend.

Is a Husband responsible for medical bills of his deceased wife in KY?

Unfortunately, yes. If you were married when these bills occurred then yes you are responsible. It is like property of a married couple- anything that is acquired during a marriage belongs to both of you. So if these bills were acquired during your marriage then yes you are responsible. If your wife were still alive you would be held liable if you were still married. So just because she is deceased does not change this, Sorry.
