    I have a military credit card and Im worried they may garnish my taxes. How much are they allowed to garnish and is there any way to find out before or do I have to wait till I get my check and see?:confused:

    They can attach bank accounts for the amount up to the amount of the debt. So once it goes into the bank, it is fair game

    I agree. Garnishment actions for debts on military credit cards can be swift and rather painful.
