    IRS. Benefits and back taxes on a closed business.
    I was just approved for social security disability benefits after 6 yrs. Of trying. I have not received any money yet. My husbands business closed 2 yrs. Ago oweing the IRS taxes exceding 100.0000. We are paying a small monthly fee to try to pay them back. When I receive my benefits can they take this from me or take a monthly fee from me? I did not work in the business or have anything to do with it. We are still married.
