Unfortunately a garnishment order does not consider the financial situation of the garnishee when executed. The state laws in which the garnishee resides determines the percentage of monies to be attached.

Federal law protects the first $154.50 (weekly/40hr. based) of the garnishee's wages. Amounts above the aforementioned are subject to garnishment as allowed under the laws of the state where the garnishee works and/or resides.

How will you be able to pay your bills if they garnish your check and you still need more money to make all your bills?

Most states, and even the federal government, will impose a limit on the percentage of your wages that a creditor can garnish. It may not leave you with enough money in your mind, but the intent is that you have something with which to eat.
