If it's federal they can get your social security without even taking you to court. They would have to take you to court for a retirement account.

If it's private they would have to get a judgment.

In the state of Pennsylvania in the USA how much can be garnished for defaulted student loans. If you owe multiple loans what is the maximum to be garnished?

I'm assuming these are federal loans, correct? A defaulted federal loan falls into federal garnishment rules, thereby trumping any rules a specific state may have to the contrary. Garnishment orders are issued for 15% of your disposable income. (Disposable meaning everything after taxes, but before luxuries such as health insurance, 401K, etc.) If you have multiple defaulted loans, you can be garnished up to 25%. My suggestion would be to contact the holders of your student loan immediately, and request a repayment arrangement. It's possible that you qualify for the William D. Ford consolidation program, which will combine all of your loans and then set you on an income-contingent repayment arrangement.

What are your rights in dealing with collection agencies for a defaulted student loan?

Your rights are extremely limited. If you have a specific question, please repost. The previous person who said that cannot collect after 3 years was completely incorrect; federal student loans have no statute of limitations whatsoever, and ED is still collecting on loans from the 1960s. Collectors of defaulted federal student loans will not negotiate, collectors of private student loans will negotiate.
