Can credit card company place lien on Social Security Check?

Posted on: 19th Apr, 2008 03:06 am
Can credit card company place a lien on social security check? I am on disability and social security is the only income I live on. Pls advise!
Get a copy fro the ss offices showing that these are ss benefits (unless you have direct deposit then that should be proof enough for the bank) and go to the bank yourself. Make sure this is only ss benefits because if you deposit other monies it could make it so that they can attach. I also have never heard of anyone but a bank putting a lein on a car.

Hi jena,

Welcome to the forums.

I guess the credit card company cannot garnish your social security income. And, the reverse mortgage doesn't have anything to do with it. Please refer to http://www.mortgagefit.com/credit-card/lien-socialsecurity.html#49849 .

Take Care

Hi cindy,

As far as I know, social security income is exempt from garnishment. You will have to speak to the lender regarding this. You can even consult a lawyer who will speak to the lender on your behalf.

Thanks

Welcome KEDDIEWHY,

As far as I know, no one can place lien on social security income. You can contact your lawyer and he will be the best person to help you out.

can a collection agency put a lien on my SSD if it is a municipal debt?

A collection will not be able to place a lien on your social security income. However, they can always place lien on your savings account.

if me and my mom has a joint checking account with my name being first on the account but she is in the nursing home the only deposit in the account is her social security can the credit card company put a lein on the account with my name being on the account

Yes, and I am assuming that the lien would be against your Mom's SS - is that right? As long as she is on the account, the cc company can attach.

for a car repo... can the lender have a lien put on your property, if you are on s.security? I know that the check can't be garnished.
