Yes, a bank account joint or otherwise can be levied against for child support payments, If the account is held by a married couple the entire account is subject to levy, regardless of whether or not the couple reside in a community property state. If it is held as joint tenants with someone other than a spouse, the other account holder will have to prove to the court what portion of the funds in the account belong to him or her.

In general, yes. In Child Support cases that are managed by the State or County, it is common for bank accounts of the NCP to be seized in their entirety. Rarely are the funds exempted except for cases of proven disability compensation. Veterans Benefits are subject to seizure only after deposited in an account. SSI/SSDI is exempt. For more accurate information, please remember to specify the State your matter is in.

Yes. The other owner(s) will likely have to prove, in a hearing, their share of the account if any.
