Can a checking account with exempt funds be levied for credit card debt?
Leo75
as far as i know and have reserached no
Edit: Yes, qualified exempt funds remain in that status after being deposited and are immune from nourishment or levy, only if they have not been converted into an investment asset. Qualified excempt funds include, but not limited to, most government benefits, including Social Security, unemployment insurance, veterans' benefits and public assistance. However, you would need to disclose this in a post-judgment procedure to properly notify the creditor of this status, especially if you want to wildcard all assets in the account as exempt. However, if your account is hit with a "freeze" do not worry, your bank knows not to freeze those assets that are in "exempt" status.
