• By Patrick on Aug 8, 2008 | Reply Chris, It really all depends when she filed her corrected tax return. The IRS has stated stimulus checks for corrected returns will be sent out approximately 2-6 weeks after the corrected tax returns are received. If she hasn’t received it by then, I recommend contacting the IRS at 1-866-234-2942. Good luck. • By Patrick on Aug 8, 2008 | Reply Jeanine, I believe the state where the child support is owed must contact the IRS for the Treasury Offset Program to garnish the tax refund or rebate of someone who is past due child support. For more information, contact your state’s child support enforcement office or call the Treasury Offset Program Call Center at 1-800-304-3107. I imagine it may take several weeks or more for this to get worked out, and it the tax return or rebate has already been paid it may be too late for this year. I wish you the best.
