What is Wage Garnishment?

Wage garnishment is a legal procedure in which the IRS can collect money directly from your paycheck to cover unpaid taxes. Unlike private creditors, the IRS does not require a court order to start garnishing your wages. If you owe back taxes and have not arranged a payment plan or settled the debt within 30 days of notification, the IRS will instruct your employer to withhold a significant portion of your salary—typically between 25% to 50%—and send it directly to the IRS.

How Can Wage Garnishment Impact You?

The impact of wage garnishment can be profound, leading to financial strain as a significant chunk of your paycheck goes towards tax debt. It can also affect your personal and professional life, causing stress and embarrassment.

Stopping Wage Garnishment
