garnishable
Subject to withholding
Garnishable describes income, assets, or wages that can be legally seized by a creditor to satisfy a debt.
Courts may order employers to withhold a portion of garnishable wages and redirect them to pay child support, back taxes, or unpaid judgments: Only a percentage of your paycheck is garnishable under federal law.
Certain benefits like Social Security are often not garnishable.
