Wage Garnishment (Levy)

For salaried employees, the wage garnishment is a favorite and extremely effective tool the IRS has to collect a back tax debt.

What is an IRS Wage Garnishment (Levy)?

An IRS wage garnishment is an order directing your employee to withhold a specified amount from your pay and send it to the IRS.  The total wage garnishment can be up to 80% of your wages and continues every pay period until the back tax debt is paid in full.

How is the amount of an IRS Wage Garnishment (Levy) Determined?

The IRS includes with the Notice of Wage Garnishment a chart your employer will use to determine how much to garnish from your pay for the IRS.   The actual amount of the IRS wage garnishment is determined by your pay rate, dependents, and frequency of pay.  You can expect the IRS to garnish from 30 to 80 percent of your total wages.  In addition to the loss of income it is a major pain for you employer and will damage your relationship with them.

How can I prevent and IRS Wage Garnishment (Levy)?
