What is the name of your state? NY
Hello there, quick question. I have finished paying off my cs arrearages with this past year's refunds, with a little bit left over. I was wondering what the process was to inform the IRS that my arrearages were paid off, so that they don't keep my next tax refund. I have not even received the balance of my refund after the arrears were paid off and my wife and I filed in February, so I certainly don't want this to happen again next year. I've been getting mixed answers from DCSE and I'm pretty convinced that they have not a clue what they're doing (my arrears went from $1000 to $13000 in 1 week as a result of a computer error...needless to say my confidence is shattered). i will appreciate any assistance anyone can give me. Thanks.

If your arrears have been caught up , DCSE should lift the tax interception , and you should get any remaining held by them returned to you .

Go down there , or write a letter of request sent RRR Certified mail .

If it doesn't work out , file with the court for a modification requesting the above .
 
Thank you!

I thought it had to be given by them! I sent them an email and they responded to me with a letter saying that I had to get a letter from my ex-wife saying the judgment was satisfied! There is no way that that is going to happen even though it has been satisfied, and then I figured that with so many unharmonious relationships there had to be a better way!! Thanks BL, I'll let you know how it goes.

You shouldn't need a letter from the X. The agency is the one keeping track of the arrearages. If all payments have been made through the agency then they know whether or not it is paid in full. I would ask them what their records are showing. They may have miscalculated again and you just don't know it yet.

The IRS has to be given a specific amount to offset. They won't accept a general offset. therefore I would recommend contacting the IRS at 1-800-820-1040 and discussing it with them. That will at least tell you how much the IRS has been told to offset. That will give you better info as to how to proceed.

The poster stated the arrears have been paid with a little left over . NY generates an account statement once per month out of the Capital Of Albany , through the support collection unit . The poster should also have proofs of payments .

If all the poster states is true , and can prove it , then the poster needs to present proof to the collection unit , and request what I stated .

If the poster is absolutely sure of what is stated and the CSCU will not rectify the issues , the poster needs to file a modification . It will not require an attorney .

Once the order is issued and received , the poster needs to obtain a certified copy of it and sent it the the office that initiated the collection .

Trust me , been there done it , but not over the same reasons .

Plus usually CSCU won't give the time of day ...
