Facing Wage Garnishment? Here’s What You Need to Know
Discovering that the IRS is garnishing your wages can be alarming. In 2025, with enhanced enforcement tools, the IRS can directly deduct a portion of your paycheck to cover unpaid taxes. This action can significantly impact your financial stability.
Understanding IRS Wage Garnishment
An IRS wage garnishment allows the agency to legally instruct your employer to withhold a portion of your earnings to satisfy tax debts. This process continues until the debt is fully paid or other arrangements are made.
Steps to Stop Wage Garnishment
-
Immediate Communication: Contact the IRS promptly to discuss your situation and explore available options.
-
Installment Agreement: Set up a payment plan that allows you to pay off your debt over time.
-
Offer in Compromise: If you qualify, negotiate to settle your tax debt for less than the full amount owed.
-
Currently Not Collectible Status: Demonstrate financial hardship to temporarily halt collection efforts.
-
Appeal the Garnishment: If you believe the garnishment is unjustified, you can file an appeal.
