I am on social security. In such a situation, can someone place a lien on my bank account?
Social security income cannot be garnished. So, the creditors cannot place a lien on your bank account which has only your social security income.

A creditor cannot garnish your social security payments directly from the sender. However, once the money is in your bank account, it can be garnished.
