Eventually it comes from the person that owes the child support. The debt does not go away until it is paid. It adds to the owed debt.
Look at it this way:
Assuming:
$10,000 was owed.
Levied tax refund $500 from both spouses.
Now $9,500 is owed.
$250 paid to injured spouse because of a 8379 form.
$250 added back to amount owed.
Now $9,750 is owed.
