You'll get an explanatory
letter from the BFS if your refund is offset for any past debts. The
remainder of your refund will be processed as usual; an offset shouldn't delay
it, unless of course your entire refund was applied to your debt.
To determine whether an offset
has occurred on a debt owed, contact BFS's TOP call center at 800-304-3107 or
TDD 866-297-0517, Monday through Friday 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. CST.
More info about refund offsets,
including contact info and the appeals process, is on IRS.gov
(Tax Topic 203).
To find out about a debt that reduced
your state refund (if applicable), you will need to contact
your State Department of Revenue.
