Does new york allow garnishment of wages?
The law allows only one garnishment procedure at a time, they are taken in priority; for example a wage garnishment for child support would supercede a garnishment for credit card debt. The maximum for creditor debt in N.Y. is 10% of gross income (income before any deductions). The maximum for child support is 25% of disposable income (income left after state and federal taxes, social security, medicare, pension, etc.) When pertaining to garnishment by creditor lawsuits the law allows the state percentage to be used if it is lower than the federal amount. Pursuant to federal law, the first $154.50 of weekly income is exempt from garnishment.

Would a state or federal garnishment be less as applied to a student loan in New York state?
The maximum federal garnishment is 25% the maximum NY state garnishment is 10% (this does not apply to child support or spousal maintenance). Therefore the state garnishment would be the lowest, but if the student loan(s) are federally subsidized the law may allow for the higher federal garnishment to be used depending upon the person's financial status. Such issues as being disabled, head of household, and so forth would be a factor in the percentage of garnishment allowed.

Does Florida child support enforcement have the authority to freeze a fathers New York bank account with out the state of New Yorks approval?
Yes, they can. Interstate child support collections laws allow states to work together to collect child support. They can issue a wage garnishment, freeze 401k, freeze bank accounts and pretty much any asset you have in the United States. I know this based on experience. BTW the state of New York will approve. States don't contest proven debt. Its like when the IRS wants their money they will get it, so will the child support collections agency and they have the same resources.

Yes, but they cannot be enforced concurrently against the same unexempt personal assets (not real property) belonging to the debtor.
