Ok I guess I'm a little confused. I e-filed my taxes online this year, they said my refund would be around 900$. I owe around 600$ in back taxes. Now is the 900$ the amount I am receiving after the back taxes are taken out? Because the refund was just deposited in my bank account this morning and it was about 900$. I'm trying to figure out if the IRS messed up and didnt take my back taxes out, or that's my actual refund. Sorry if I didn't explain well. Any help would be great!

If when you filed it said you'd get $900 and you did, then it sounds like they didn't take out the $600 that you owe, either because the paperwork hadn't caught up with it yet, or because somebody messed up someplace. It would be a good idea to take $600 of the refund money and go ahead and pay off what you owe, and not have the IRS on your back any more.

I would suggest that you contact the IRS before cashing the check. You might owe for federal and not state or the other way around. I was in a similar situation and the IRS sent me a refund check when I owed them money. Good Luck and remember don't **** with the IRS =D

sounds like they made a mistake I would check with them before I spent any of it just to be on the safe side
