No, we cannot possibly delve into your account at the IRS. Turbo Tax helps you file your return, but does not have access to anything about you beyond that (and isn't that a good thing?). We don't control refunds or offsets, and cannot provide information as to whether it will happen. That's not a part of Turbo Tax.

For more information on refund offsets, review the information from the Treasury Offset Program.

Monitor your refund with the IRS. If there's a lien, you will receive a message after you have filed.
