What Is an IRS Wage Garnishment?

When the IRS issues a wage levy, they notify your employer to withhold a portion of your paycheck and send it directly to the IRS. Unlike a one-time bank levy, wage garnishments continue every pay period until the debt is resolved or the garnishment is released.

The IRS can take a substantial portion of your take-home pay — often enough to create serious financial hardship. Your employer is legally required to comply with the levy notice once they receive it.

This is not a situation that resolves itself. Every paycheck, more money goes to the IRS until something changes.

What To Do If Your Paycheck Is Already Being Garnished

This is an emergency. The IRS is not required to release a garnishment automatically. Action needs to be taken immediately.

1

Do not ignore it

Each paycheck, more money is taken. Waiting does not make this better — it makes it worse.

2

Do not contact the IRS alone

What you say can affect your options. The IRS is a sophisticated collector. Professional representation protects you.

Ways a Garnishment May Be Released or Reduced

The right approach depends on your specific financial situation. We review your options before recommending any strategy.

Installment Agreement

Setting up a qualifying payment plan with the IRS may result in the release of the wage levy.

Currently Not Collectible

Demonstrating financial hardship to the IRS may qualify you for a temporary pause in collection activity.

Offer in Compromise

A pending OIC may pause active levy action while the IRS reviews your settlement offer.

Filing Missing Returns

Compliance is often required before any resolution. Unfiled returns must typically be addressed before the IRS will negotiate.

Proving Economic Hardship

In some cases, demonstrating that the garnishment prevents you from covering basic living expenses may support a request for release or reduction.

Common Questions

Can the IRS take my whole paycheck?
The IRS cannot take your entire paycheck but can take a very large portion. The IRS uses exemption tables based on your filing status and number of dependents to calculate how much to leave you. What remains may not cover your basic expenses.
How fast can a wage garnishment be released?
In some situations, a garnishment can be addressed relatively quickly once representation is in place and the IRS is contacted. Timelines vary based on the IRS workload, the complexity of your case, and the resolution path that is pursued.
Will my employer know about the garnishment?
Yes. The IRS sends the levy notice directly to your employer, who is legally required to comply. Your employer must withhold the specified amount from each paycheck and remit it to the IRS.
Can I stop a garnishment on my own?
You can attempt to contact the IRS yourself, but without proper representation, you may say something that reduces your options or creates additional complications. A Power of Attorney lets us speak on your behalf and navigate the IRS process for you.
What if I also have unfiled returns?
Unfiled returns must generally be addressed before the IRS will agree to a resolution. We handle both simultaneously. See our page on unfiled tax returns for more information.
Can the IRS garnish wages in Las Vegas, Nevada?
Yes. The IRS can garnish wages anywhere in the United States, including Las Vegas and throughout Nevada. Federal tax law applies regardless of state. Nevada has no state income tax, but that does not protect wages from a federal IRS levy. If the IRS has issued a wage garnishment notice, it is enforceable in Clark County and statewide.
