Since he is in jail, he still has to sign for the return. The best way to do it is to get a “Power of Attorney” for him while he is in jail. This way if there is any legal thing that needs to be done (like taxes), it could be done without any problems.
If you don’t want to go through with it, you can send him a blank tax form and have him sign it in the appropriate place and send it back to you through the mail. When it gets to you, just place it in a safe location. Do some practice runs through your taxes and then once you think all the numbers are correct, fill in the information on that tax form.

Just do your taxes and send them in.. You could electronically sign or just sign his name, as long as he is aware of the situation (This is what I would do, not nessarily the legal thing; However, I know that my husband wouldn’t care, so it would never be a problem. Your situation may be differant). If you think he would object, you should have them done with an accountant to make sure it is done right.

It is possible to have his signature via mail. Notarized as well.
Be leary he does not come after you for his $5,000.00 when he is out. If you have a joint account with your husband and your funds are and have been co-mingled, then I would not worry about it.

You’d need power of attorney to be allowed to sign the return for him. Other than that, you’d need his signature – any way you can do that by mail? It can’t be that unusual of a situation, there must be some way to do it.

If you had an Adjusted Gross Income of less than 52,000 then you may be able to file for free. Go to the IRS website and click on the Free Filing 2007 link. It will guide you to places you can file for free. One of these are Tax Act.com. Have your return direct deposited into your joint checking account. That will save you a trip of having to get a check signed, you may want to look into getting a Power of Attorney from your husband for the duration of his time.
