Answer: It could be earlier this week, but most of them won’t be until Friday.

Question: Does the IRS really take 6-8 weeks when there is a delay/offset on your federal refund?

This is the first year this has ever happened to me. I only owed $100 dollars.
I filed on 01/16/2009 accepted on 01/18/2009. Supposely they mailed out the letter on 01/29/2009. still havent recieved the letter. It was federal taxes that I had owed. Sorry I should have been more detailed.

Answer: Depends who you owe. If you owed the IRS, it doesn’t take that long and you usually get your money on the regular refund cycle. If it was a different federal agency, it will depend on whether or not all the information is set up properly.

If they have correctly told the IRS that they only need the $100, then you should get the rest quickly. If they are still processing your account wherever you owe, it will take longer.

added: If you talked to IRS and they said they sent a letter but didn’t show the refund scheduled to go out, it sounds like they are still reviewing the past debt (and possibly this return if they debt was due to a filing error in the past) to make sure everything is in order before they do the refund.

Question: Will the IRS intercept your tax refund if you owe back property taxes?

If we owe back property taxes for 2007 will our refund from the IRS be taken this year to help pay for the back taxes? Any info would be appreciated!!! Thank you.

Answer: I would say no. Property taxes are owed to your county, not the Federal Government. My husband and I got behind on our property taxes back in 96, and we received letters from our county tax collector, mortgage company and a very nice (cough) lawyer for the mortgage company, but never heard from the IRS. We filed our Federal taxes like always and got our refund as usual. Your State refund, if you file state returns, may get offset, so you may want to check into that with them, but I wouldn’t worry about your Federal refund.

Question: did you have a problem getting your irs refund direct deposit in your account?

I did my taxes early February at H&R Block. I checked the irs website to check the status, and it says my refund was direct deposited into my acct on 2/9/07. It is not there! I called the bank, they say there has been no deposit and there isn’t anything pending. IRS said they cant do anything until after the 14th. Anyone else have similar problems?

Answer: Your bank may not have been able to post it before the end of the business day, If it is not in your account on Monday call the IRS to see if there is a problem
