Yes and no. Pell Grants and Student Loans are exempt from garnishment by federal law. This money will go directly to your college and pay for books and such. School must be paid for first. However, a bona fide loop hole does exist: If you recive a left over rebate from your college and deposit those funds into a bank account, it's fair game. This is why you burn all left over money from your school up or ask your school to give you a check instead of a bank transfer. Just sign that check over to someone else. Because if you're scared that your pell grant or student loan is going to be intercepted, it's obvious you have a garnishment order if effect on your bank accounts, paycheck, income tax check and ect, lol. Do the right thing you guys, and make a payment plan with the state to stop most enforcement efforts.

Will a new spouse in Missouri's be responsible for child support of her new husbands children?

Can your husband's ex sue you or use your income for child support?

No. Child support is the responsibility of the biological parent who is named in the support order. It is possible for a joint bank account or other property be attached for payment of support to the extent of amount owned by the person ordered to pay the support, including liens against real property. In addition in community property states the court will often allow an entire bank account of a married couple to be garnished for child support that is owed by only one of the spouse's. The safest option is for the new spouse to have a separate account not a joint marital account.


Can money be garnished from your business bank account for a shortage on foreclosure?

Whether your money can be garnished depends on the type of business you have. If you have a corporation, your personal liabilities are separate from your business liabilities, which means your corporation's bank account will not be garnished.


Can your income be garnished if you pay child support?

Not sure in what context you mean, but yes a court order can garnish your wages for child support. IF the custodial parent has filed a support order and paternity has been established then YES absolutely your wages can be garnished. If you mean that a creditor filed judgment against you and you are the one receiving child support, they cannot touch that money, but if you are getting those direct deposited and the creditor attaches the order to your bank account the child support can be taken indirectly that way. Good luck
