This could be possible. The Department of Treasury's Financial Management Service (FMS), which issues IRS tax refunds, is authorized to operate the Treasury Offset Program. In addition to recovering back taxes, this program may also be used to recover and offset past due child support, Federal agency non-tax debts, or state income tax obligations.
