Wage garnishment by the IRS can be shocking and financially devastating. If you’ve noticed a sudden drop in your take-home pay—or received a warning about garnishment—it’s time to take immediate action.
Total IRS Relief helps people across the country stop garnishments, resolve their tax debt, and protect their financial future.
What Is IRS Wage Garnishment?
Wage garnishment allows the IRS to legally seize part of your paycheck directly from your employer. Unlike private creditors, the IRS doesn’t need a court order—just a series of unaddressed notices and a final warning.
How Much Can They Take?
More than you might think. The IRS uses a formula that exempts a small portion of your income based on your filing status and number of dependents. The rest is taken to cover your unpaid tax debt.
Many taxpayers lose half or more of each paycheck until the full debt is paid or a resolution is in place.
Why Garnishment Happens
-
Unpaid back taxes
-
Unfiled returns
-
No response to prior IRS letters
-
No payment plan or agreement in place
Before garnishment starts, the IRS typically sends a Final Notice of Intent to Levy and gives you 30 days to respond.
