Question : What happens if I paid off my entire student loan but they still applied my tax rebate to it?
I paid off my entire defaulted student loan at the beginning of this month. I even received a paid in full letter. But today I just got a letter from the IRS that my $600 was applied to that loan by offset!! Apparently there wasn't enough time between when I paid off the loan and then getting my rebate. I just tried to call the Missouri Department of Education, which my loan is through, but they are closed for the day. Does anyone know if I can get my $600 back??? :(

All Answers: Answer #1 You are going to have to contact FMS, or theFinancial Management Service. They are the onesthat actually collected the money from your taxrebate.
