Paycheck garnishment?

Question

My paycheck is already garnished for child support. can another entity garnish it also?

Answer 1

hi im sorry to tell you but i know someone who pays child support and had their wages garnished for a vehicle repo i think legally the garnisher can take up to 25% of your disposable income

Answer 2

Sure can, so call and make a payment arrangement before garnishment begans.

Answer 3

Answer 4
