If you receive Disability Income from a Long Term Disability Insurance Policy can creditors garnish the monthly income from this policy?

The answer to your question is yes. If creditors can garnish your wages if you were working, then they can garnish the income you receive from your disability provider as well. The same procedures they would have to go through to garnish your wages from your employer, they would go through the disability company (filing court documents). Unfortunately, creditors consider any income you receive, working or not, as income.


If you are being sued by a credit card company and your spouse is the head of household and the only one working can they garnish his wages?

No. Florida law pertaining to wage garnishment is an exercise in common sense. The first $500 of weekly income by the head of household is exempt from garnishment. (Head of household is defined as the person who provides more than half the family income.) In order for any garnishment of wages, the head of household must agree in writing to allow the garnishment, if the person does not agree ALL wages are exempt,(here's where common sense plays a part). However, you must file an affidavit with the court declaring the head of household exemption or the wages will not be protected. Contact the court clerk or court administrator in the county or city in which you reside to find out the proper procedure.


Can a credit card sue you when you are not working and was not working when received?

Answeryes*THEY WILL SUE YOU!!!!!!!!!! There are no options. They do not care if you are unemployed, if there are no jobs in or area and even a single mom to boot. These Banks that CAUSED our economic failure WILL take you to court and win. The judge then decides whether to put a lien on your house or garnish your wages leaving you unable to EVER have a decent life again. The unemployed in our country don't have a prayer.
