For the past two years, whenever my wife and I would file our taxes, our refunds end up being taken and paid towards her student loans. That’s fine. It’s the only way we can afford to pay them. So we expect it.
I have not finished filing our taxes this year because somehow we owe money even though our jobs are the same. That’s a different story and I’ll figure that part out later. But the important info is that we have not filed this year.
I just got a letter in the mail saying a check from the IRS is being applied to the student loans. The date is today. I don’t know why we’d be getting a check from the IRS already. The amount is $10 more than last years refund. So it’s not a repeat from last years number somehow.
Did someone file our taxes for us and try to steal the money without realizing it would be garnished? I’m kind of worried and of course it’s a Friday so I can’t call until Monday.
