Child support tax offset

TurboTax never knows about offsets to your refund for back tax or child support.   If the delinquent support you owe is lower than the amount of your refund you may get some of your refund.    That will all be handled by the IRS or your state and they will send you a letter.

 NOTE: You can contact the IRS Treasury Offset Program Call Center at 1-800-304-3107 to ask if they have an offset for you on file. TurboTax would not have that information.
