Has Your Tax Refund Been Denied Due to a Tax Offset?
Unresolved debts with the IRS or other federal agencies and creditors can jeopardize your tax refund. The US Department of Treasury may initiate a tax offset against individuals or organizations with outstanding taxes or debts.
When a tax offset occurs, your tax refund may be fully or partially withheld to offset the unpaid amount. What’s concerning is that you’ll forfeit tax refunds until your debts or back taxes are completely paid off.

- Unpaid Student Loan Debt
- Delinquent Spouse and Child Support Payments
The IRS typically sends a “Notice of Intent to Offset” to notify individuals and organizations with significant unpaid taxes or federal debts. Ignoring this notice can result in a tax offset being imposed shortly. Additionally, a tax offset may still occur if you have not received the notice due to recent relocation.
