Best Answer

It is an amount that you owe. More than likely something you have ignored the billing on. The creditor went to court and had a lien filed against you, which attaches to everything you own - saying no one else can get title to it (if property) or access it until the debt is satisfied.

If it's an income tax matter, they have the lien and the right to use whatever overpayments or refunds you have coming to paydown the account, hold back social security, etc. Other creditors would have similar abilities. The account and ebt continues to incur interest and charges until paid in full.
