What Should You Do If the IRS Starts Garnishing Your Wages?

If the IRS starts garnishing your wages, take action quickly. Review any notices you have received, confirm the amount owed, and explore available options to resolve your tax debt. Depending on your situation, you may be able to stop IRS wage garnishment by arranging an approved payment plan, qualifying for financial hardship relief, or resolving an issue with your tax liability.

You should also check whether penalties have been added to your balance. If you qualify, IRS penalty abatement may reduce certain penalties and make your tax debt easier to manage. Keep in mind that penalty relief does not automatically stop wage garnishment, so you may need to address both issues separately.

Consider contacting the IRS or a qualified tax professional to review your options, understand the required steps, and determine the best way to protect your income while resolving your tax obligations.
