What are Tax Levies? They are Federal Government seizure of assets. They usually came most often as bank levies and wage garnishments.
- An individuals wages, salary, and other income can be levied seized. Wages, salary, and other income include payment for personal services in a work relationship.
Employer Threatens to Fire Taxpayer Because of a Levy
- Sometimes an employer threatens to fire an employee to avoid handling a levy. This might be a violation of 15 USC 1674.
- If the employer fires the taxpayer because of this, the employer might be fined not more than $1000 or imprisoned for not more than one year, or both.
- Refer the taxpayer to the Wage and Hour Division of the Department of Labor (DOL). DOL, not IRS, must decide if the employer violated the law.
-
Unlike other levies, a levy on a taxpayer’s wages and salary has a continuous effect. It attaches to future payments, until the levy is released. Wages and salary include fees, bonuses, commissions, and similar items. All other levies only attach to property and rights to property that exist when the levy is served.
- When other income is levied, the levy reaches payment the taxpayer has a fixed and determinable right to. If the taxpayer’s right to that payment is not dependent upon the performance of future services, then the levy will reach the future payments as well. Also see IRM 5.11.6.1, Retirement Income.
