How to Stop an IRS Wage Garnishment (Wage Levy)
An IRS wage garnishment is “continuous.” Unlike a bank levy which hits once, a wage garnishment stays on your paycheck every single pay period until the debt is paid in full or the levy is released.
How Much Can the IRS Take?
The IRS uses a specific table (Publication 1494) to determine how much you get to keep. For most people, the IRS takes 50% to 70% of their take-home pay. They leave you just enough for basic survival, but not enough to pay your actual bills.
The Solution:
We can stop a wage garnishment by contacting the IRS Centralized Lien/Levy unit. We provide them with a financial statement showing that the garnishment is causing an immediate financial hardship. In most cases, we can get a Levy Release (Form 668-D) faxed to your employer within 24-48 hours of taking your case.
