I lost my job due to the COVID-19 crisis and I filed for unemployment. Will the child support garnishment amount be the same now that my income has been reduced?
The garnishment amount remains the same, as does your child support obligation amount. Please note that it takes several pay periods for a new garnishment to start deducting from Unemployment and that you remain responsible for paying this obligation ON TIME as well as any difference between the garnishment amount and obligation amount if the garnishment amount is now lower than your child support obligation amount.
