Can EDD put lien on tax refund?

What is the name of your state? California

My son was killed last year & did not have a will, or anything of value. At the time of his death he owed the EDD for an overpayment of UI benefits & had been getting requests for payment. I called the EDD & explained the situation. I was told that the case would most likely be dismissed. This was last year. They have continued to send him notices for payment, even after I sent them a copy of his death certificate (per their instructions).

I recently filed his final tax return for 2005. My question is will the EDD take his tax refund once it comes, or put a lien on it?

Thank you for your input in advance.What is the name of your state?

What do the initials EDD stand for? How much does he owe the EDD and how much is the tax refund?

the answer is yes. He recieved an overpayment for his unemployment benefits. These "State" funds are now owed back to State. A lien on any property and/or "State Tax refunds" can be placed until over payment has been cleared! Why wife has had you last two State refunds taking by State of California for same reason.
