Wage Garnishment & Bank Levy Help
The IRS can take your paycheck or clean out your bank account. We can stop them.
How to Stop an IRS Wage Garnishment or Bank Levy
When the IRS sends a Notice of Intent to Levy, it means they are prepared to take drastic action — garnishing your wages, emptying your bank account, or seizing your assets. These actions can happen with little warning and are extremely disruptive. But they can be stopped.
Wage Garnishment
The IRS can garnish a large portion of your paycheck every pay period — sometimes leaving you with barely enough to survive. Your employer is legally required to comply. We can get the garnishment released by placing your account in a resolution status.
Bank Levy
An IRS bank levy freezes your account for 21 days, then sends the funds to the IRS. During that 21-day window, we can take action to get the levy released. After the 21 days, recovery is much harder.
