Income Garnishment

If the the loan co takes you to court and obtains a judgment against you, yes, they will garnish your wages.

You bet they can, and they will.

Yes, it can. Taxes owed are garnished from all sorts of income, unfortunately.

i have 2 medical bills on my credit and i need to know what they are and i have the account numbers where do i look/

Yes.

Not directly. However, in many states, if the landlord obtains a judgment (and a judgment is always necessary for any form a garnishment), the landlord may garnish your bank account.

There are several states (NC, SC, Penn., and Texas) which do not allow garnishment for creditor debts.

No. Military and government pensions are exempt from judgment creditor action. However, the judgment debtor should keep in mind that it is his or her duty to inform the court that such funds are exempt from attachment.

Exempt monies such as pension benefits, SSI, SSD, etc. should never be commingled with other funds in any bank account.

are garnishments calculated by gross pay or net pay

It's not going to happen. You owed money and that creditor went to court to get your employer to deduct what you owed them from your paycheck and send it to them. Your employer does not owe you a dime. They followed a court order. They had no choice.

You went bankrupt AFTER the garnishment, so anything paid BEFORE the bankruptcy is water under the bridge. You cannot "get money back" on something that was paid before the bankruptcy.

Since you went bankrupt, the garnishment should stop but you will not get any money "back".

No Lenders must utilize due process to have a judge order a garnishment first per the FTC. The payday lenders cannot just send a garnishment order to your hr dept without a court order first. Read more in the related links below.
