Your refund amount may be different if we had to make changes to your tax return. We will send you a letter detailing those changes if that is the case.
Your refund amount may also change if you have a debt due to government agencies or public or private institutions of higher learning. We are authorized to reduce your refund to pay the debt. If all or part of your refund is seized, you will receive a letter with more information including who to contact if you have questions. Any refund remaining after the debts are paid will be sent to you.
If you think you have an outstanding debt with a state agency or public or private institution of higher learning, contact the agency directly. If any of your refund is used to pay an outstanding debt and you have questions, directly contact the agency you owe.
