No, but they can take away tax refunds to pay a child support arrears. Child support is separate and for all purposes at a higher category than taxes. Money owed towards taxes will be taken by other methods, but it is easy and now legal for child support to be taken from tax refunds.
The laws vary from one state to the next, but for the most part, most states have laws that allow federal and state tax refunds to be attached for the payment of child support arrears. Do an Internet search for the specific law in your state.
Yes. The child support division may divert the entire amount of a tax refund to pay towards any back child support. The IRS doesn't care about other children or other obligations. The only way to prevent this is file for a modification of the support order in court and provide compelling reasons why the entire tax refund check should not be diverted to pay down child support arrears. This will continue until all amount in arrears is satisfied and after that time, it is your responsibility to ask that the state that intercepted your tax returns do a tax offset review. Be prepared to provide all documents that show you have paid and are current, then they may dismiss the lien against you. You may be entitled to a refund from that state if your tax refund continues to be diverted after the arrears has been satisfied.
