Past--due child support, Federal agency non--tax debts, state income tax obligations or certain unemployment compensation debts owed a state (namely debts for compensation that was paid due to fraud or for contributions due to a state fund that were not paid due to fraud).
You can contact the agency with which you have a debt, to determine if your debt was submitted for a tax refund offset. You may call FMS at the number below for an agency address and phone number. If your debt was submitted for offset, FMS will take as much of your refund as is needed to pay off the debt and send it to the agency you owe. Any portion of your refund remaining after offset will be issued in a check to you or direct deposited for you.
FMS will send you a notice if an offset occurs. The notice will reflect the original refund amount, your offset amount, the agency receiving the payment, and the address and telephone number of the agency. FMS will notify the IRS of the amount taken from your refund. Contact the agency shown on the notice if you believe you do not owe the debt or you are disputing the amount taken from your refund. If a notice is not received contact FMS at 800--304--3107 or TDD 866--297--0517. The available hours are Monday through Friday 7:30AM to 5:00PM CT. Contact the IRS only if your original refund amount shown on the FMS offset notice differs from the refund amount shown on your tax return.

Do you pay taxes on your income tax refund?
A Federal income tax refund is not taxable income (for state or Federal purposes) in the year a taxpayer receives it.A state income tax refund for a previous tax year, however, may be another story. It will be Federal taxable income in the year in which the taxpayer receives the refund, if he itemized deductions on the previous year's Federal income tax return.Suppose a taxpayer files his 2010 Form 1040, and itemizes his deductions. Following the instructions for the 1040, he deducts $500 withheld as state income tax (shown on his W-2) in computing his 2010 Federal taxable income. He then prepares his state income tax return and discovers that he owes only $435 in state income tax, and is due a refund of $65 (the difference between the $500 withheld and his actual liability of $435). His actual state tax liability was only $435, but he had deducted $500 from his 2010 Federal taxable income, so when he gets the $65 refund in 2011, he must include it in 2011 income for Federal income tax purposes to make up the difference.However, if the state refund was for a tax year for which the taxpayer did not itemize deductions on his Federal tax refund (i.e., he took the standard deduction), it is not taxable income to him.
