If it is in deferred status, they will probably not take your tax refund. If your student loan is delinquent, then they will be seize your refund and put it toward your debt.

If you are delinquent in your student loans to the point where your refunds are being intercepted, they can take the entire refund until the debt is satisfied.
Yes. If it's a state sourced student loan,they can hit your state refund annually until it's satisfied-sorry.
If it is a govet' insured or guaranteed loan, yes.
Any federal or state agencies (including student loan and child support) have the right to take any amount due from your refund. It has nothing to do with EIC and they have the right to take the whole refund you are due if you are in default or have a judgment against you.
If they have is listed as in default, they will take it and apply it to catch up your loan payments. I had a couple of people this year who said theirs was on deferment but they still took the refund, then others they didn't.
They will take the entire tax refund if you owe that much. And they will do that every year until the loan is paid.
yes they can take it for that
No. The IRS doesn't take your tax refund unless you owe the government money, government insured student loan arrears or child support arrears. It does not collect money on behalf of banks. However, if you deposit your check in your bank account it can be frozen by a creditor and the funds taken.
If it is a loan backed by the government (insured/guaranteed), then that step isn't needed. If it isn't, even with it, they can't get to your refund until you do.
Yes, if you filed jointly. You owe the government for the loan, they can offset anything coming in your name.
Yes, it can.
