Yes, unemployment benefits can be attached or garnished under certain circumstances, such as to repay debts owed to the government, child support obligations, or taxes. However, most states have laws that protect a portion of unemployment benefits from being seized for other types of debt. It's important to check the specific regulations in your state, as they can vary.
