Refund offset negative bank due to fee's

My tax return has been offset due to child support debt. Child support enforcement agreed to give me part of my refund back due to financial hardship and needing to take care of my other child. I still have not received it back from them yet. And now my bank account is negative $300 because TurboTax auto debit my account before I received any money and there's nothing I can do about it. So on the 1st when my tanif is deposited it's going to be completely gone due to fee's of being negative for so long and I will be left with nothing left the month my son turns 2 years old. I don't know what to do.

Refund offset negative bank due to fee's

Sorry-----when you chose to pay your TurboTax fees by having them deducted from your federal refund, you signed an agreement that said if the IRS took unusually long to issue your refund or if your refund was seized for any reason, that TT had the right to take your fees from your bank account.   They would have sent you several emails about it before actually taking the money out of your account.

TURBOTAX TOOK MONEY OUT OF MY  ACCOUNT

 

Did you choose to have your TurboTax fees deducted from your federal refund?  Is your refund taking an unusually long time to arrive?  Or was your refund seized to pay a debt you owed? if so, you signed an agreement that says TT can withdraw its fees from your account.  TurboTax would have sent several emails to you before they took the money out of your account.

I'd phone TurboTax Support, and tell them what happened to you.  I know in the past they would refund overdraft fees that they caused, but I'm not sure if they still do it or not.   I hope they would, but no guarantee. It can't hurt to try.
