NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- State government officials expect to nearly double the amount of child support money seized from delinquent parents in coming weeks.
The state has already diverted more than $26 million this year in tax refund payments going to Tennessee residents who were behind in child support payments. More than 20,000 refunds were seized under the federal Income Tax Offset program.
Because of the tax filing deadline this week, Tennessee Human Services Department officials expect a flurry of seizures ahead.
State officials say the average interception is $1,200.
