I have a offset how long would it take til I get my funds after the offset

I have the same question.  IRS received my refund Feb 18, 2019, the WMR website states its processing. I have an offset but the amount that owe for my offset is less than my Federal refund amount and wanted to know if any one knows how long it takes the IRS to direct deposit the refund difference. Has anyone received the balance of their refund after their offset was paid this year (2019).

I'm wondering the same guygant1, IRS says my name is approved with the full amount and will be deposited on Wednesday so does that mean I'm getting the full amount? When it's approved will it show the amount that's approved so if there was any offsets would they update that?

It'll post the difference the day it says its supposed to be deposited. They automatically take it out and post the rest.

So even though it says it's been approved the full amount, that doesn't mean I'm going to get the full amount it can still be offset?

I received state today. Federal expected in 3 days. (Wed)

Yes it won't show the offset. That's how mine was showed the full refund amount then the offset is still taken out. The irs isnt in charge of the offset so they don't know about it. You can call the offset hotline and select option 2 and itll tell you if irs taking it out or not. Mine told me threw the hotline on the Sunday before that Wednesday I got mine
