Can my social security disability check be garnished?

Supplemental Security Income (SSI) payments cannot be garnished by either the federal government or creditors. However, Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) payments can sometimes be garnished to pay a debt. Your SSDI payments can be garnished to pay federal income taxes, student loans, court-ordered child support, court-ordered alimony, court-ordered restitution to a crime victim; and some federally funded home loans. SSDI payments cannot be garnished by creditors, including credit card companies, most mortgage lenders, or auto-financing companies
