As far as the IRS is concerned, if your ex was not included on the tax return for the year that you are filing, they would have no claim to your refund. If you were filing a joint return for that year then the spouses name is listed on the return and they would have to sign the check in order for you to cash it. Be very careful here, if you endorse the check for the refund by signing your former spouses name to the check, you will be guilty of fraud by conversion and for forgery. The IRS will prosecute someone who commits forgery by signing someone else's name on a check.
