Does your employer have to agree to your wage garnishment or are they forced to?

It is not up to your employer. Wage garnishment is a matter of law, not preference. Most all employers are required by law to comply with a wage garnishment. At the present 4 US States- North Carolina,South Carolina,Texas and Pennsylvania do not allow wage garnishments at all except for debts related to taxes, child support, federally guaranteed student loans, and court-ordered fines or restitution... There are also several other types of employers that are not required to comply with wage garnishments at all whatsoever,even when those wage garnishments are ordered by a court....here are but a few of those> An employer that pays you totally in cash and requires you (the employee) to pay all the Federal,State and Local taxes each quarter yourself....is exzempt from complying with wage garnishments.. An employer that classifies you as a sub-contractor that is solely responsible for your own taxes,insurance,licensing ect is exzempt from complying with wage garnishments. An empolyer that pays waiters/waitresses the required $2.13 per hour in which the employees cash tips make up 75% of the employees pay are not required to comply with wage garnishments.. An employer that hires an employee on a temporary basis of 30 days or less is exzempt from complying with wage garnishments..
