O'Hara U-S- Treasury - 1971 Operation Offset 1-6 was released on: USA: 22 October 1971
A disability insurance policy can have two main categories of benefits: base benefit and supplemental benefit. Only the supplemental disability benefit can be reduced or offset by any other benefits received (including SS disability, Workers' Comp, or any other employer benefits). The base benefit will not be offset by any other benefits received.
You may not get advance warning, but you should receive a letter from the Treasury Offset Program telling you that your refund that you were expecting to receive has been offset. Many times, the offsetting agency (in your case, the student loans) will send you a letter beforehand informing you of their intent to offset your federal refund.
