Garnishment is strictly based on income, not current residence or where you got the loans.

In the USA, if your Federal Student Loans are in default, then your original lender was paid 97% of your loan value by a Federal Guarantee Agency. Guarantee Agencies are basically insurance companies. When your lender was paid off, the Guarantee Agency took ownership of your loans. Guarantee Agencies have the right by law to keep any Federal Income Tax return money that is owed to you. They also have the right to garnish any wages and to garnish Social Security benefits.

What is the statute of limitations on a loan to collect once a garnishment is rendered?

In the U.S., there is no Statute of Limitations on the collections and garnishment of Federally Guaranteed student loans like Stafford, PLUS, and Perkins loans. The collection agency can garnish your wages until the loan is paid, which takes a very long time with garnishment since most of the money paid is for collection fees and interest.You have two ways to get out of Garnishment:Call the collection company and request to enroll in a Rehabilitation program. The collection company will continue to garnish your wages and require you to make an additional monthly payment on-time for 9-12 consecutive months. They will explain to you that your Defaulted loans will be sold to another lender at the end of your Rehabilitation period. Problem is, there are no investors or banks buying rehabilitated loans in this economic environment, so your loans will stay in Default status until the Bond market is revived.Consolidate your defaulted loans through your lender. Unfortunately, almost all lenders will not consolidate defaulted loans. I only know of one company that can help you consolidate your defaulted Federal loans through another Federal lender program. They can get your garnishment lifted from your current collection company, and give a 100% money back guarantee on their services. The company is Default Management Services, Inc.Hope this helps.
