@NearMiss: he was single not married and no kids at the time. He was just out of the army so he was on temp unemployment so no job. They never sent a letter saying he owed anything just wanted him to file the 2012 tax year

@NearMiss: that would be so awesome! I just yelled at him said damn single guys slack off on everything. I just am confused cause I know that they can take your money whenever. I just wasn't sure if they could take it without informing you of how much. Now we just have to wait for the refund and see if they even took anything at all
