    Bank levy laws in nj
    Hi I live in nj I have a judgement against me for an old credit card I was unaware of the case against me because they sent the papers to an old address. I live on social security disability and I am also a payee for my cousin's ssi which is deposited directly into my account however my husband whom I am separated from deposited money in my account for child support just before they levied my account that's all the money that I have is there any way I can get it back?

    Hello d:

    Probably not. Your SSI is NOT garnishable, but the bank isn't going to do the bookkeeping for you. I'd open another account and transfer your SSI to that account, and inform the bank that that's all that's in there.

Can a levy be place against your bank account if it is joint and the joint account holder is not your spouse. Is it true that adding a child or aanother third party to your account as a trust or co owner will stop the levy because creditors can not seize an account with a third party.
