Question
teejay53
hi all;
i am back with an important question. i have called a few attorneys to see if they give a no cost consultation and have not found one yet, so i am asking my little question here.
can a creditor garnish my social security survivor benefit check or my dic check? i do not know whether to cancel my auto deposit to my bank and have my checks mailed to me or not.
i asked the bank manager at my bank where my checks go about the garnishment issue and i could not get a straight answer from him either.
a social security rep told me that shortly no more checks will be mailed, only auto deposit will be offered. the reasoning is:
will save the government a great deal of money on postage and the cost of generating a paper check, plus the expense of re-issuing lost/stolen checks.
is anyone using the social security "direct express" debit card? i ask a customer rep if my money could be garnished if i used their card and could not get a straight answer. the bank it comes from is "comenca bank".
thank you for your help with this.
teejay
