Garnishment is a method of attaching payments paid to someone who owes a debt in order to use those payments to satisfy the debt owed. Garnishment is commonly ordered to be made on an employee's wages, but may be ordered on other forms of payment, such as tax refunds. Certain types of payments may not be garnished, such as welfare, unemployment, veterans benefits, Social security, workers' compensation, pensions, and child support payments.
