Call the Bureau of the Fiscal Service directly at (800) 304-3107.

  • Listen to the prerecorded message and do as instructed. Do not call on someone else's behalf, as this is a criminal offense.
  • You will need to enter your social security number when prompted. The BFS will search its database to see if there is an offset against your debt. Write down any information provided, including the creditor agency so you can call with any additional questions.
  • If you are married and file jointly, and your spouse's refund will be offset, you may be entitled to your part of the refund. To find out, file an Injured Spouse Allocation form, or form 8379. For more information about this process, call (800) 304-3107.

The IRS will never contact you by phone or Email they will send you a letter and if the letter seems suspicious you can go to irs.gov and go to the fraud reporting page to confirm if the letter is indeed real. The phone calls are a scam.
