Newly released guidance from SBA & Federal Debt Advisory Services focuses on the Treasury Offset Program, one of the federal government’s primary tools for collecting past-due, non-tax debt.

Borrowers across the country are discovering, often without warning, that a federal payment they were counting on has been intercepted. A tax refund disappears. A benefit payment is reduced or unexpectedly lower than anticipated. Confusion sets in quickly, especially when the notice references something unfamiliar called the Treasury Offset Program.

SBA & Federal Debt Advisory Services explains that before offset occurs, agencies issue written notices explaining the debt, the amount claimed, and the borrower’s rights. These notices matter. They are often the only window a borrower has to review records, raise objections, or understand what options may still be available before enforcement continues. While these notices are typically clear and outline the government’s position and the borrower’s rights, many individuals are unable to meet the repayment terms required and need to understand how federal administrative enforcement actions will impact their income and benefits.

To help meet this need, SBA & Federal Debt Advisory Services provides advocacy-focused support for individuals facing federal non-tax debt collection through the Bureau of the Fiscal Service. Services are designed to help borrowers understand what is happening, what the government is claiming, and how federal administrative enforcement actions are likely to be applied based on the status and type of their debt.

Support may include strategic coaching, detailed review of Bureau correspondence, guidance on payment arrangements, assistance with wage garnishment hearing preparation when applicable, and help initiating congressional inquiries when agency delays occur.

Rather than pushing one-size-fits-all solutions, the focus is on education, clarity, and informed decision-making. Each borrower’s circumstances are different, and federal agencies apply rules differently depending on the debt type, referral status,

SBA & Federal Debt Advisory Services works with a wide range of federal non-tax debts, including Small Business Administration disaster loans such as EIDL, Small Business Administration business loans, federal student loan obligations, and debts originating with agencies such as USDA, DFAS, Medicare, and OPM.

For individuals feeling overwhelmed or unsure of their next step, the process is intentionally low-barrier and judgment-free. Borrowers can review available resources, complete an intake form, and schedule a free consultation to better understand what the notices mean and how federal enforcement processes apply to their situation.

SBA & Federal Debt Advisory Services provides advocacy and consultation services and does not offer legal advice or legal representation. The goal is to help borrowers understand the federal administrative system they are facing and make informed choices about how to move forward.
