If my tax return is confiscated for outstanding student loans will I be notified?

Yes, if your refund is offset for student loans you will receive a letter from the IRS about it. TurboTax does not have any knowledge or feedback from the IRS when a refund is offset, so your source of information about this is the IRS. You can check to see if there is an order to offset your refund.


 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.
