So I owed back child support an Wheres my refund it says wat they are taking out but now it also says this tax topic 201- the collection process. What does that mean?

Topic 201 means that you owe tax to the IRS. It explains the collection process for income tax due.

It says that "if you don't pay your tax in full when you file your tax return, you'll receive a bill for the amount you owe. This bill starts the collection process...." It goes on to say that the first notice you receive will explain the balance due so that should give you insight into why you owe tax." They also give you an option to make payments on the amount that you owe.
