Wage Garnishment
Almost nothing is worse than having your boss hand you a garnishment order by the IRS . In the case of Wage Garnishments, the taxpayer is directed to turn over part of his or her wages to the IRS. In the event that the IRS files a Wage Garnishment, the taxpayer's employer must intercept a percentage of each of his or her paychecks, then forward that percentage to the IRS. When one spouse has a outstanding tax obligation both spouses are subject to wage garnishment. Wage garnishments remain in effect until the taxpayer's back taxes are paid in full, or a formal release is negotiated with the IRS. The amount of money that the IRS can withhold is based on a variety of determinants, such as whether or not the taxpayer is married, or the number of dependents of the person in question.
