A creditor may not garnish more than 25% of your wages per pay period. For individuals earning minimum wage or near minimum wage, you must be left with an amount equal to 30 times the Maryland minimum hourly wage.
Programs like Social Security (Retirement, Survivor or Disability Insurance) and Veterans Benefits are also exempt from garnishment. This money is automatically protected when you have less than 2 months of benefits in your account.
Creditors generally cannot garnish more than 25 percent of your disposable wages. Disposable wages are the earnings that remain after deducting all withholdings required by law, or any of your disposable wages if you make less than $380 per week. These limits do not apply to judgments for child support.
Most, but not all creditors, are required to go to court to get a garnishment order. You can challenge a garnishment if youre receiving certain types of income that are exempt from garnishment like Social Security, unemployment, and retirement benefits.
