If the IRS adjusts your refund then they will follow up with a letter in about 3 weeks.

You may have other debts that are being paid by the refund. Although the economic impact payment could only go to pay back child support, the Recovery Rebate Credit can be applied to back taxes or any other debts owed to other government agencies.
