If one of your creditor's has a judgment against you it can garnish your wages.

With wage garnishments which are also called wage attachments, your employer holds back some of your wages and gives them directly to the creditor. Some creditors, like the IRS and Defaulted Student Loans, get some special treatment and can garnish your wages without a court judgment.

There are generally federal and state limits to how much can be garnished from your income through different formulas. Often, the amount varies by state. And in some cases you may be able to raise a valid objection to a wage garnishment order or even negotiate a lower amount due to your circumstances.
