    If the tax return is in both names either you BOTH have to sign it to cash or OR it has to be deposted in a joint account. If you have family that is willing to support you now, would they provide food and shelter for you and your children so that you can file for a divorce? There are homeless shelters, of course, but I'm not sure that that is what you are asking.

    You can always attempt to reach an agreement with him - you will take half of the tax refund and leave. He'll probably argue that he made all the money and the total refund is his, but that is not the legal case.

    Your best bet is to get an attorney NOW and file for divorce BEFORE you "get out" of there. It would better to take an official step then the run out.
