Let me set the stage: A man and woman meet in high school and are married soon after graduation. Wife works a few part time jobs before becoming a stay-at-home mom. Husband continues to work in construction as an Independent Contractor for the next several years while Wife raises their 3 children. Husband was responsible for all financial affairs on behalf of the family. Wife is given a monthly allowance and runs any large purchases by Husband first. She has no idea how much money Husband makes, how much money they have in the bank, etc. Many years down the road, Husband decides to divorce Wife and leaves her with nothing. Just as she feels she's built up a new life on her own- got a job, opened her own bank account, rented her own apartment, etc- BAM! The IRS begins garnishing her wages for a tax debt incurred during her marriage because Husband was not filing and paying in taxes throughout the years.
