Can an ex spouse tax refund be garnished even though its not their income from whihc money is owed?
This comes up often in divorce cases. If you were legally married during the time in which the tax is owed then more than likely both parties are equally responsible for the tax in question. You can file and "Injured Spouse Form" on your behalf and the IRs will determine who is responsible for the taxes. Most likely this will only protect your currents spouse's (if remarried) share of your current return but you can try.

If you owe the IRS can you still get a rapid refund?
I don't understand your question. A refund (rapid or otherwise) occurs when you have overpaid your taxes and the IRS owes you money. If you owe the IRS money, you will not be getting any kind of refund. If you are talking about the situation where this year's tax return shows a refund, but you still owe unpaid taxes from last year, do NOT apply for a rapid refund. The IRS will keep your refund to pay your back taxes and the rapid refund company will still charge you a fee for processing the rapid refund even though you won't be getting any refund. You've waited this long to get a refund. Even if the IRS wasn't getting your refund, is it really worth paying $100 or $200 in fees just to get your refund one week earlier? well that answer is not totally true if you owe the IRS does not mean will not get any refund back because they could have still owed it from the year before and the IRS will deduct what is owed and send out the difference
