When payroll professionals discuss garnishments, more questions are asked about Illinois attachments than any other state. Not only are Illinois garnishments challenging, but many companies do business in Illinois. Illinois has unique calculation requirements for creditor garnishments and state tax levies. It is the only state that requires an employer to withhold for voluntary wage assignments and was the first state to require electronic payment of child support.

Attorneys file judgments for failure to answer interrogatories at the drop of a hat. Bloomberg BNA's webinar will provide you with valuable information to apply when administering wage attachments and in depth solutions to help you remain compliant in Illinois.
