What happens when your income tax refund is garnished for debt?

So you were expecting a tax refund from the IRS after you filed a tax return. Insteasd of getting your refund, the IRS sent you a letter saying that your refund was used (garnished) to satisfy your back tax debt. What is going on? This means that you have a back tax liablility with the IRS and the IRS will take your refund to satidfy that debt. If you got your refund check garnished and you were unaware you owed the IRS, you need to take care of this situation fast. The IRS can start enforced collections against you and go as far as garnishment of your pay and levy your bank accounts. You can find out more at wallysworldoftaxes.blogspot.com.
