@poohbear6989 Tax Topic 203, is a reduced refund. You may have a refund offset, or you may have selected the Refund Processing Service (also called pay-with-your-refund) gives you the option to deduct your TurboTax fees from your federal tax refund.

 

A refund offset is when an IRS refund is reduced or intercepted to pay off delinquent debt, such as past-due child support, outstanding student loans, or unpaid state income tax.

Please see the IRS link below on Tax Topic 203:

Topic No. 203 Reduced Refund

 

If an offset actually takes place, the Bureau of the Fiscal Service will send you a notice.

For questions regarding this, you would need to contact the IRS:
