Did you go to court and file bankruptcy? Cause usually when you file for bankruptcy after you have filled out all the paperwork and paid the court fees to file for the Bankruptcy and it is now your court date. The judge will say your name, list all the creditiors youowed and how much. then he grants the bankruptcy- ** therefore they would not be able to garnish your wages. UNLESS IT IS FOR IS A GOVERMENT BILL- LIKE DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VECHILCES, PARKING TICKETS, IRS, COURT - ie: LAWSUIT, DIVORCE, CHILD SUPPORT etc. HOPE THAT HELPS.
