I received a Notice that my Federal tax refund is being taken to pay child support. Why?
Your case fit the criteria for offset and was certified to IRS. The certification is done monthly. The criteria for selection are as follows: ALL CASES: • Active IV-D case • No re-direction, bankruptcy, or good cause • Must have or have had a valid court order • Balance at the end of the previous month must be $150 or more for federal tax offset and $100 or more for state (FTB) offset • Cases must have at least one minor child The amount on your Pre-Offset Notice is the amount of the balance at the time the case was certified. You will only receive a Notice once the first time in that year that you are certified. A new Notice will not go out every time the monthly certification program runs.
