The IRS recently published another press release stating there is $110 million in unclaimed refunds. Mostly, unclaimed refunds are due to taxpayers moving and the IRS does not forward the refund check. However, alot of refunds are seized to pay many other items including you past tax debts.
The IRS can seize your refund, take your refund if you are in currently not collectible or an installment agreement (in fact- they will take your refund if you are in this status), or owe some other federal debts (i.e. Student loans) or child support. Your IRS accounts are subject to the Treasury Offset Program.
This program can summarily take your refund. Hence, if you are one of the "unclaimed" refunds- the chances are greater that the government took your refund rather than it is "unclaimed."If you owe tax debt and the IRS is taking your refund, it is best to consult a tax professional for all of your options.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
