Tax tps any R&F accountants out there?

[FXS]

I just got notice that my joint federal tax refund ($2640) I filed with my wife is being withheld because I have outstanding student loans. It did say she could fill out a form 8379 as an injured spouse and get her share of the refund. Does this work, is it a guarantee? About 85% of our income from last year was due to her, I was out of work. Will she get just half? Damn this sucks! Someone please ease my mind.

Thanks

peace
