Hi J.Moore,
Welcome to the forum.
I do not think that a credit card company can place a lien on your social security check. If you are delinquent on Federal tax then only the Government may garnish it.
Best of luck,

| No they can't but be sure that if you have your check direct deposited you don't deposit any other funds besides ss benefits into that account just in case they would pull money from it. |

Hi J.Moore,
No credit card companies cannot place a lien or garnish income from Social Security. Social Security benefits are exempted from execution, attachments, garnishment, bankruptcy or insolvency laws or any legal procedure.

| But you must inform your bank that it is social security that is going into your account, they may not be aware. The bank can stop the garnishment, only if they know it a head of time. goodluck. |

|
|
| If you owe money for credit cards and cannot afford to pay it back because you are not working and are living on ss, if you were able to save a little in your savings account little by little, can you attach your monies in that account if it is joint ownership. Also if you own your car outright (1999) can they put a lien on that as well? Thank you |

Hi MARYLOU.
Welcome to the forum.
You should try to pay the credit card debts as the interest rates of credit card debts are very high. If you don't pay it off then they can place lien on your properties and even on your car. But they cannot garnish your social security account.
Feel free to ask if you have any further questions.
Best of luck,
Larry |
