Federal tax refunds can be seized by the IRS for tax arrearages without the normal legal procedures being used. Federal and state tax refunds can be seized by a state child enforcement agency for court ordered child support arrearages. Tax refunds cannot be seized for creditor debt, for example, a judgment for non payment of a credit card account. But, once the refund is placed in a bank account it can be subject to levy by a judgment creditor. The Federal Government can also offset your federal tax refund to pay a student loan debt.

Your income tax refund can be decreased by what is commonly called an offset.This can occur if you have outstanding federal or even some state debt(s). .Having worked in tax preparation for many years I have seen offsets occur for various reasons.
