    Debt collections
    I am being taken to court by a debt collector, I need some help!
    After all my necessary expenses are deducted from my take home pay I'm still $218 in the hole.
    I do how ever receive a VA disability check which gets me through the month.
    Can they garnish my disability check? Or my pay?
    What can they do to me?

    While SSI benefits are exempt I don't think VA benefits are. And your salary certainly isn't depending on where you live.

    I've moved this to bankruptcy and Debt where it belongs. You will find several threads here that exaplain what to do in this situation. Please browse through them and feel free to ask specific questions if you need more help.
