Tax Refund Offset
Your Louisiana state tax refund may be applied to unpaid debts.
If your Louisiana state tax refund was offset, the following will occur:
Tax Refund Offsets are applied to your account within 7 days. The amount shown on your certified letter has already been offset and will be applied to your account. DO NOT PAY THIS AMOUNT.
- Over-payments will be applied to other debts or refunded by check within 60 days.
- ODR does NOT offset Federal Tax Refunds. If your federal tax refund was offset, contact the Federal Debt. Management division of the US Treasury at 888-826-3127
- Keep in mind, the debt may belong to the joint filer on your Louisiana tax return. If we have your email address, you’ll receive a receipt when the payment is applied.
NOTE: Your Louisiana state tax refund may be offset for debts even if you are on a payment plan.
