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.
There is no 'statute of limitations' regarding property. It sounds like a life estate that will revert to the estate. You should consult an attorney in your state for specifics.

After the applicable statute of limitations runs (typically four years on a credit card debt), the creditor will have a tough time collecting. If the creditor sues, you have to plead statute of limitations as an affirmative defense, but it is a good defense. ==Additional Answer== In some states there is a specific statutory period during which a creditor can make a claim against an estate. In Massachusetts, for example, once an estate has been filed for probate a creditor has one year to make a claim. After that period the creditor is barred from trying to collect from the estate. Check your state laws. If there is an executor then the estate must have been filed in probate court. If the creditor has already filed a claim against the estate in probate court then the claim will need to be paid before any disbursements are made from the assets of the estate. The creditor will not need to bring suit to collect and the claim filed will preserve its right to collect.
If you are on a mortgage you have to claim half of the interest by Texas law?
Unlike the U.S. Canada does not have a statute of Limitations on most criminal charges other than some very minor offenses. Time limitations do not apply where an accused has fled, been out of the jurisdiction, is hiding in the jurisdiction, or has prevented the victim from complaining to the police. So the clock does not tick for people who have forfeited the right to time limitations. That being said, minor offenses often reach a point in time when allegations are so old that it is fundamentally wrong to allow charges to be laid, even if the allegations may be true. Most Canadian law firms offer a free half hour consultation, and therefore I would suggest the questioner take advantage of this before returning across the border.

You are not allowed to claim a child on your return if the child does not live with you and if you do not provide over half of their support. They must also be your child or related to you in certain ways. If all of these tests are not met, then you are not allowed to claim the child and if you do, you will have your refund taken and if they find out later you will also pay penalties and interest. More penalties can be placed on you that eliminate you from receiving any earned income credit for up to 10 years.
