Q: I pay arrears on cs . my case was sent to the irs. can i get the offset stopped via undue hardship & if so how? Thanks

I was ordered to pay cs for 6 yrs on my two kids. 2 seperate cases. i have done 180 days x2, plus got 2 seperate felonies. one for 2 yrs and one for 1 yr. I am primary custodian again and have them back in my home fulltime. My aunt who had them is no longer in the picture and drew a kinship check. Is there a program where I can get the offset lowered atleast to where we get atleast half of my taxes??? I dont mind paying half of our taxes but by the irs taking all of my taxes it buts us in a financial bind, BIG TIME. I will lose our car and I MUST have it in order to work. ALL advice is appreciated.
