The IRS does have some guidelines on this ie. it does not want you to live without any money to eat etc. But the threshold it must leave is very low-they don't have to leave you with enough to pay your rent otherwise you could just move to an higher rent place. It is better to come to an agreement about garnishment with the IRS, otherwise the IRS will attempt to take as much as possible as quickly as they can. For example, if you owed $1,000 and earned $250 per week, they would probably attempt to recover $200 per week for five weeks. It would be better to agree to $100 over ten weeks. Remember, because you have reached this point, the IRS will want substantial payments and $10 a week will not suffice now. They will help, but you will have to ask!
