Are you a Non-Obligated Spouse?

If your spouse owes the state of Missouri back taxes, student loan repayment, back child support, etc., you may qualify as a non-obligated spouse. If you do not want your portion of the refund to be used to pay the past due obligation, check the non-obligated spouse box on the Missouri return. The state will allocate your refund between yourself and your spouse.

Any amount owed to the IRS are excluded from the allocation.
