If she files an Injured Spouse form with the return, then the portion of the refund that’s due to her income and withholding won’t be subject to being taken for your debts.
Your spouse needs to complete form 8379 Injured Spouse Claim to protect her portion of your refund. Based on her withholding the IRS will compute what portion of the refund she is entitled to
If you haven’t filed yet make sure the 8379 is send with the return. If you filed already., she needs to complete it and send it in immediately
I believe the whole thing can be garnished, but not positive. You ought to call the IRS and ask. It might be sensible for you to either pay off the arrearage, or at least file separate — but you will get less back that way I believe.

yes, if you are getting a return chances are the government will take some of the payment from your refund if not all of your refund.
