Yes, the state and the government can garnish your income tax return. Call and make arrangements before this happens as this will involve several people at your employment. People do not keep quiet about things like this and everyone will know. Not only that, but you could lose a sizeable amount of income that you need to live on monthly until the total balance is paid. If you make arrangements before this happens and you keep the arrangements, this can be avoided and will help your credit in the long run. Good Luck!
