      Some of my federal refund from this year was used to pay back federal taxes I owed from 2016, and I received the balance in a small refund. Then my state refund from this year was sent to the IRS as well to pay the same debt, but because it was already paid off, the IRS sent me a notice and said they’re going to mail me a check for the over payment. As of this past Friday, when I look at my 2016 transcript, I see the payment from the state, and the balance of my account is a negative amount, which makes me think they’ve realized the overpayment but it has not been refunded yet. What’s confusing to me is the codes listed since they received the check from the state. Does any of this show progress? I’m hoping the last code does not mean I’m back on hold with this.
