In the US, if you don't pay your student loans for 270 days, they become default. When they become default, the collection agency will start to garnish your wages and the government will keep all future tax return refunds.

You should consolidate your student loans and prevent the wage garnishment. You can get an income-based repayment plan and pay as little as $0 a month, defending on your income and dependants.

What are a secured partys rights on a debtors default?

The secured party's right after default includes taking possession of the collateral of the debt. If the collateral does not cover the full amount of the debt than a judgment can be placed on the debtor to get the remaining money.


Will they take how much you owe in student loans out of your taxes?

Not out of your taxes but they will take it from your tax refund. If you are on time with your payments and are not in default, they will not take your refund. The only way this will happen is if you are in default, then a lien will be placed on your tax refunds.


If you had a levy placed against your bank account in 2005 and nothing has happened since can action still be taken at a later time?

In all likelihood it would be necessary for the creditor to refile the judgment as a new bank account levy or even renew the judgment and then file. The action that can be taken by a judgment creditor is determined by the laws of the state where the judgment is entered.


Can a request for default judgment be filed if there was no summons?

There can be no judgment of any sort unless the lawsuit has been filed and "heard" in accordance with state statutes. Often the defendant debtor believes they have not been legally served because the civil summons was not physically placed in their hands. In the majority of U.S. states that is not a requirement. A civil summons can be hand delivered in several ways (process server, courier such as FedEx, etc.) or it can be sent as registered mail via U.S.Postal service. The premise for such action is that a "reasonable attempt" needs to be made to inform the defendant that he or she is being sued. If the named person cannot be found and/or he or she refuses delivery of said summons the lawsuit will go forward under the default laws. In such instances a default judgment can legally be filed. The defendant does have the right to contest the validity of said judgment to have it quashed. But unless it can be proven that the required notification procedures were not followed the judgment will stand.

Can a collector use a judgment to garnish your wages if you were not served a lawsuit summons and given a chance to defend yourself in court?

It is possible for a creditor to receive a judgment by default when the debtor does not appear on the date of the trial (hearing). In most instances all that is needed is for the creditor plaintiff to make a reasonable attempt to serve the person named on the civil summons and not necessary for the summons to be physically placed in the defendant's hands.
