Q: Can the state of florida take child support out of my 2nd job as well?
If i am paying my monthly child support amount, and i sill have quite a bit of back child support to pay; will they take more money out of my 2nd job to satisfy my back child support? They take my tax returns for back child support, and half of my paychecks for my children from my full time job. I got a part time job to help more with my responsibilities; but do i have to worry about my 2nd job being garnished too?
A: Yes, they can garnish all sources of income up to a certain amount.
