In New Jersey, employers are allowed to charge a fee for processing garnishments, but the amount is capped at $10 per pay period. This fee is intended to cover the administrative costs associated with processing the garnishment. However, employers cannot pass on additional fees to employees beyond this limit. It's important for both employers and employees to be aware of these regulations to ensure compliance.
