Legally, you are both wrong, you are not paying what was agreed/ordered/legally entitled to be paid, the debt and the tax return and the child support. I would tell him straight up that you are not paying the credit card, but you will consider CS in the amount you would have paid to be current. For example, if you would have paid 100.00 on the credit card, then you consider 100.00 paid for CS.
Morally you are both wrong, you have decided to punish him for his wrong doings, not your job, you decided to keep a tax return that was legally both of yours. You could have told him you are keeping the tax return and will consider his half as CS paid to you, but you did not do that, you kept it. Exactly what backpay are you talking about? Was the money paid by you as a couple when you were married( for his education costs) and you are getting reimbursed, or is this money that was never payed by the VA, and owed him and finally paid.
You should keep a spreadsheet of all the extra money, the extra money he got, and the extra money you got.
Definitely go to CSE and get his pay garnished or whatever you can do, he owes that and obviously he doesn't seem to want to pay, is there court ordered CS and if not get it done immediately.
I don't think you were so much wrong for keeping the tax money, for not giving him credit for his half is wrong.
