It's possible. Usually, the Child Support has a precedence and the IRS will take your refund (the amount you owe) to cover it. In certain situations the IRS can release the refund for the child support, but it will not happen automatically. If you are currently making payments and arrears, I would contact the Treasury Offset Program directly to find out more information at 1-800-304-3107.
