The Department of Treasury's Financial Management Service (FMS), which issues IRS tax refunds, has been authorized by Congress to conduct the Treasury Offset Program. Through this program, your refund or overpayment may be reduced by FMS and offset to pay any past--due child support, Federal agency non--tax debts, or state income tax obligations.
For additional information, FMS can be reached at 800--304--3107.

Gov't backed student loans are exempt from BKruptcy....they will come after you thru tax refunds or garnishment.
There are many repercussions for defaulting on a student loan. The government will get its money back by garnishing your wages, tax refunds, or any social security benefits. These are serious actions and it is better to work with the loan companies if you can not make payments.
If you are not delinquent with your student loan, your federal income tax refund will not be garnished.
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.
