Open Question: If you owe back taxes can the IRS take part of my Social Secur...
With out any warning the IRS took 25% of my social security disability check this month to apply to back taxes. Last summer they were going to take part of my wages from a part time job I had but after a little research they decided that i fell under a hardship clause and decided just to put a lien on any future properties I might acquire. From that time on nothing has changed as far as ownership of anything and I actually earn less now than I did at the time they were going to guarnish my wages.I have nothing now except for a 1998 auto. I lost my job of 40 years due to an ongoing illness, , lost my home of 29 years through foreclosure. I now rent. What a heart breaker. People tell me that it is not legal to guarnish a persons Disability check. Any on know the real truth about this. Should I hire a lawyer and look into this???? digger_dog67@yahoo.com

Open Question: Is there anybody who recieves Unemployment Benefits in CA?
I filed a UI this june and I received a letter that indicates my starting date and expire date but the amount that I am receiving is all $0.00. On the next day, another letter that requested Identification prove requirements but I get this part. Another day, received a "Continues App, I guess we have to fill that out every two weeks to get the checks to be mailed to us.Then, I thought, everything was all settled but today I received another letter that says, " NO BENEFITS ARE AVAILABLE FOR YOUR CLAIM AT THIS TIME. IF YOU REQUESTED A RE COMPUTATION OR ARE WAITING OR MILITARY, FEDERAL OR OUT-OF-STATE WAGE TO BE INCLUDED IN YOUR CLAIM, CONTINUE TO FILE FOR WEEKS YOU WISH TO CLAIM. !" I don't get this and it does not explain anything else if I had denied for my claim or what else was going on with my claim. I tried calling EDD.CA.gov but they never picks up due to high volume phone calls I guess. But then, every time they send letters out, there is number we can reach if we have any questions but no answer always. Is anybody had same issues or someone knows more about benefits, please help out with some advices. Thanks a lot.

Open Question: Can one's car get taken away if audited?
My friend got an audit after being overdrafted and owns about 370$ total, and she's really really worried that the bank will randomly come and take her car away. The car is completely paid off - was paid for in cash - and it's in her name. I'm not sure what type of audit it was- but thankyou for your answers. It cleared it up for her, knowing that they can't take it under the circumstances.
