Taxes Q & A- My ex-spouse is delinquent in paying - E-PersonalFinance

My ex-spouse is delinquent in paying child support. The attorney general has filed some sort of paperwork with the IRS to withhold their tax refund. When and how will I receive this money?

The answer varies depending on the state that is involved. You need to contact the state involved by linking to its page on the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children & Families Offices of Child Support Enforcement web site to get this information.
