I'm sure eventually it would be deducted from some kind of check, not necessarily your income tax check.

Better Answer:

yes, if your loans are in default then you will be listed on the Tax offset list. Once on the list, your tax refund will be kept by the Guarantee agency until the loan is paid off or until the loans are out of default.

In the USA, if your Federal Student Loans are in default, then your original lender was paid 97% of your loan value by a Federal Guarantee Agency. Guarantee Agencies are basically insurance companies. When your lender was paid off, the Guarantee Agency took ownership of your loans. Guarantee Agencies have the right by law to keep any Federal Income Tax return money that is owed to you. They also have the right to garnish any wages and to garnish Social Security benefits.

Better Answer: Yes, they can tax offset. However make sure that you change your W-4 with-holding to take the least amount possible. You want to OWE money for taxes, not get a huge refund. This keeps some of the money away from the student loan collectors.

As far as Social Security they can garnish 15%, but must leave you with at least $750 a month.
