State Refund held for debt but no offsets showing - TurboTax fees to blame?

Tax professional here - TurboTax fees wouldn't trigger a state refund hold. They take their fees directly from your refund as a separate transaction. If you're seeing a hold for debt but no offset notices, you should check with your state revenue department directly. Each state has different debt collection programs that might not show up as traditional offsets.

Check if you have any unpaid parking tickets or court fees. My state held mine last year cause of a stupid $50 ticket I forgot about 🤡

each state has there own rules for this stuff. what state r u in?

This happened to me last year and it turned out to be an old utility bill from 5 years ago that went to collections. The state can grab your refund for basically any govt related debt.
