IF YOU DID NOT RECEIVE YOUR FULL REFUND

When the IRS reduces or witholds your refund its usually for one of three reasons:

1) You have an outstanding tax debt to the IRS or one of the states.
2) You are delinquent on child support payments
3) They have adjusted your return and reduced your refund.

When this happens they will send you a letter 2 to 6 weeks after your refund date detailing what was done, and who you can contact for additional information.  

We can also explain your letter to us if you send us a copy via text or email, or if you bring it into our office.
