    Please pay more attention to the guidelines on the screen. The title is just for a brief description of your question. The screen advises to use the larger box to post your question including details.

    We really can't answer your question because of the lack of details. SS is exempt from most types of debt. But child support, taxes and other debts may be taken from the checks. Also once the funds are commingled with other funds they are fair game. So you need to give us more details. Please use the Answer This Question options to provide further info.
