If you filed a joint tax return, she can't. A joint return has both of your names on it, so the refund will have both of your names as well.

For Federal income taxes, the spouse should file an injured spouse form to recover his/her share of the refund.

How do you find out if a spouse has filed a tax return?
The obvious answer is to ask your spouse. If that is not an option, have your divorce attorney ask your spouse's attorney. You can call the IRS and ask them if by any chance a joint return has been filed with your name on it, but they won't tell you if your spouse filed a separate return. If none of that works, file a separate return (married filing separately, not single). If civil relations are ever restored with your spouse, you can talk about matters and file an amended return later.
