I thought that they would give you the refund and have you pay what is owed over time? It doesn't make any sense to me. As I made the estimated tax payments but even if I contest it I have no way to prove it now due to that account being closed and the bank and I being in court cause I'm sueing them

What do you need to prove? Yes they will automatically take any past due out of your refunds. Are you saying the amount is one hundred and thirteen THOUSAND? I think for that much you should be using a CPA.

Yes that is what I am saying and it doesn't make sense why I still wouldn't get my refund. But if I paid that due amount and then amended my return would I then get that refund?

No point in doing that. It would be a wash. Why would you want to pay the past due to get the current refund? That doesn't make sense. Just let them keep your refund.
