Yes!! I have recently had my federal tax return as well as my state tax return taken by unemployment. There was a new law passed sometime recently that says they now have the right to do so. When I spoke with unemployment they were very vague about the whole situation which proves that it is something new. Be careful!! They will take it and there is nothing you can do about it. They give you the chance to protest it. But 9 times out of 10 it wont matter
Lets be clear here: Yes anyone can get the right to take pretty much any asset of someone that owes THEM money. However, if they aren't the government, it cannot directly receive a tax refund (although if you deposit it in a bank they could then). So yes, the government can retain your refund to pay any debt you owe them.
NOW THE CRUCIAL THING: (What you seem to want to avoid mentioning) - The only way you could OWE on unemployment is if you applied and received a payment(s) you didn't have a right to. Like you thought they wouldn't see if you continued collecting after you returned to work...and then thought if you ignored the demands for repayment they made it would go away.
Yup, the government can not pay YOU while you owe them, especially for fraud. Be happy they aren't prosecuting you for criminal acts.
