There are programs in force that wll direct your refund to be applied to your back child suppport..hard to tell if your on the list of one. Of course, it's what you would want done with that money anyway isn't it...

Child support is one of those things that all systems are being alerted to and you can expect to receive nothing from governments, and find easy garnishments placed and judgments supported until they are paid in full

yes, even if no arrears exist

see links below

The State should not be taking your tax refund if you are current. (Making the court-ordered payments on an arrearage doesn't mean you're current). Before the State intercepts a tax refund or other payment, it sends advance notice. If you're current, you need to contest that notice as soon as you receive it.

State and Federal tax agencies interact with all US state child support enforcement agencies. When a non custodial parent who is negligent in child support obligations files taxes the return will be "flagged." If the parent owes more than $500 to the custodial parent or legal guardian or more than $150 to the state's child support agency the refund will be seized and the filer will be notified of the action.

Yes, if the custodial parent seeks help from child support enforcement.

It can, yes. If you owe more in child support than you're getting as a refund, the state is well within their right to take the entire refund.

Are child support payments tax deductible?

You and the child's mother have to agree who is taking the child deduction (usually the parent with custody), so the child support is probably not deductible. Consult with a CPA or tax specialist to make sure; you can refile your taxes if there is some way that the payments are deductible--but only if a CPA says you can.
