It depends on the state in which the couple live and when the house was bought. If the married couple reside in a community property state and the home was purchased during the marriage, then the home can probably subjected to creditor action. If they do not live in a CP state and their are no joint debts in default, the house is protected in most cases.

Irs Phone number to see if your taxes will be withheld for student loans?
I don't know of a phone number that you can call to see if your tax refund will be taken or partially taken for debts such as you mentioned here. The IRS is not the agency that handles this action, it is the Department of the Treasury, but a different department with the Treasury Department. If you have a debt of this type that is listed as delinquent, the odds are that funds will be taken for these debts. Also, if you have a debt of this type you will already know about it. Letters are mailed to people many times who have these debts and whether or not your refund is taken, look at it as a way to get the debt paid. Once debts are paid in full you will no longer have to worry about your refund going toward delinquent debts owed to a Government Agency.

When your dad dies who gets his house?
That depends on many things, the most important of which is called a Will. If your Dad made a Will, then all his property after any taxes or debts he owed that may have to be paid (his estate) is divided up as the Will specifies. His house in these circumstance will go to the person he has left it to. If there is no Will, then the estate will be taken over by someone appointed by the state/country in which he lived and this person will divide up the estate as your countries laws require. As the person was your Dad you will have a claim on his estate and the house could go to you but if your Dad left a wife, she will have a pirority claim on it, even if she is not your mother. Without a Will it is complicated - get legal advice.
