My husband's tax returns for years 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009 were partially denied and additional information was requested. He fought the 2006 return for 3 years before he gave up because someone told him he couldn't get a refund from it anymore. This was all before we were married. Now, the IRS is taking my money to pay this (my state taxes, yes I file the Injured Spouse Form) so I called to see if something could be done. The gentlemen on the phone said we could in fact still submit the information that the IRS requested.

I have gathered everything and mailed it in today. I started to do some research though and I cannot find if this will actually do anything for us. His original tax returns were filed timely. Is there a statute of limitations on sending back the requested information? I see that he cannot receive a refund past 3 years but is this only for tax returns that are newly filed after 3 years?

Feeling a little confused :/
