Claim what? Your refund was applied to your defaulted student loans. There is no tax credit or deduction for paying on defaulted loans.
Might be a good idea to work on rehabing those defaulted student loans. They ain't going away and can come after more than just your tax refund.
I've read that you are able to claim the interest from payments made toward student loans. I havent found anything that says if I can do that or not for force repayments / defaulted.
Certainly a good idea about working on it on my own, not that I havent tried, finances come into play though. I am unemployed and do not draw any government benefits, barely scratching out enough money for living expenses as it is.
As for coming after anything else, I have nothing else for them to come after. And after seeing in comments about another thread I have, people saying I may not a valid claim to my gifted property, the government would be doing me a favor and exploring whether or not I do, and if its valid and co-owned, could the government force a sale or take away property that is co-owned anyway to repay the last of the loan...which is roughly 900 dollars that is the balance of the loan.
