If the tax refund offset payment is from an individual tax return, it will take at least 10 weeks for the payment to be credited. For a joint tax return, it may take up to 6 months for any federal (IRS) offset payment to be applied.
In the summer, the preferred direction for a ceiling fan to spin in is a counterclockwise direction as you look up at the fan blades. You will feel a cool downward airflow as you stand directly under the fan. In the winter, the preferred direction for a ceiling fan to spin in is a clockwise direction.
Lets say it is Summer time and you want to set your ceiling fan to spin the correct direction. When looking at your fan from below, the fan should be turning counter clockwise, or forward. The reason for this forward spin direction is so you can get as much airflow as possible when it is hot outside.
