garnishment

If the employer is working somewhere else, the agency can direct that their wages be withheld in order to pay the funds owed to L&I, a process called wage garnishment.

If you continue to ignore notices, the IRS may resort to severe measures, including tax liens, wage garnishment, asset seizure and passport restrictions.

They are exempt from garnishment and levy in most cases.

In addition, the full value of a person’s tax refund is subject to garnishment.

Besides Texas, which doesn’t allow the garnishment of pay, your employer, an asset holder or bank can garnish your pay as long as the required documents have been executed.
