If I am turned down for a passport due to back child support, do I get my money back?

If someone owes back child support and applied for a passport and was turned down, do they get the money back?

---------------

The U.S. Department of State does not refund passport application and execution fees for applicants whose application for a passport was denied. The only fee that may be refunded is the expedite passport fee and that is on a case-by-case basis.
