When creditors seize Social Security Payments
If you have your Social Security check elecronically deposited into your bank account each month you may be surprised to find out that a creditor may try to seize your funds. Freezing and garnishing accounts that hold Social Secruity, SSI and veterans beefnits is illegal in most instances. Social Security recipients are aften vulnerable to garnishments because many of them use electrnic deposit, which make it easier for banks to freese accounts. Banks are obligated to compy with state laws regarding garnishment or risk huge fines. The U.S. Senate is considering a bill that would prohibit use of federal funds to promote direst deposit to SS beneficiaries until garnishment safeguards are in place.
