No. Debts made by either spouse before marriage belong to them alone. This includes taxes. Even after marriage if the couple file separate returns each person is responsible only for their filing. If there is a problem such as collection procedures, that can affect all joint spousal property.
NOT TRUE: I contacted them before I married my husband and while making payments every month..Upon marrying my husband they immediately came in and took over 5,000 dollars from his account.

Your question is some what confusing, since it seems that you married someone to whom had a child support order upon you. If that occurred, you would still be liable for what the court ordered regardless, unless a request to modify was made and ordered by the courts.
