It was my assumption that after the divorce, any of my ex-husband’s back taxes, fines, and penalties are no longer my responsibilities. He explained that the IRS was not under the obligation to honor the divorce decree. The IRS held me equally responsible since the problems occurred during the time when we were married and filing our taxes jointly.
