I Paid My Rebate to the IRS

“I just received a bill from the IRS to payback the little bit of money I got when I was homeless, which I am doing. I didnt think I owed the money, but I didnt want to be homeless again so I had to agree. Obviously, the rebate was taken for that debt. I thought I heard someone even mention that when my bill to the IRS was calculated, the amount owed was raised slightly to compensate, so in the end my rebate may not have counted for anything, or at least not for its full value. “
