2021 federal tax return was offset

[cenadonkey]

Hell For reasons I do not wish to get into I was not able to file my 2021 taxes until the 13 of October 2022 after a day or they were accepted 11 days later they were approved for direct deposit but they were being offset for a debt. When I called BFS I was transfers to Treasury who gave me a number I called the number of whom I owed debt to and find out it's District of Columbia federal Treasury office unfortunately it is a weekend and I have to wait till Monday to find anything out. But here is my question I have never lived anywhere other than Oklahoma why would my Federal return be held for offset to District of Columbia ? If I owed a Tax debt would it be there ? Any answers would be appreciated?

The federal Bureau of Fiscal Services is headquartered in our nation's capital city, Washington, D.C.  Your federal refund was offset for some sort of debt you owed---you have not mentioned whether the debt was back taxes, child support, etc.   The IRS will be sending you a letter in several weeks that explains to you what happened to your federal refund.   If you owe something in your own state such as child support, the Bureau will end up sending your refund to the appropriate agency in your state that takes care of child support.

TurboTax does not receive feedback from the IRS regarding money that was offset from your refund.  If you owed back taxes or child support, you will receive a letter of explanation from the IRS in several weeks.  The WMR site will contain a message regarding your offset.
