If the IRS is already garnishing wages from my husband's check every week for back taxes owed, is it legal/typical for them to take money out of our bank account as well?
They've done so without any warning today. We've received no statement of this, and furthermore, they withdrew large sums of money from my account twice in one day, even though the money was clearly not available, causing a negative balance!
My husband has called the IRS and is on hold for over 40 minutes at a time while no one is willing to give him a straight answer as to what else we can do.
If this has happened to anyone, how often do they take the money (daily? weekly?) if so, is it typical for them to do so numerous times a day?
We've made a payment agreement a number of years ago on THEIR terms and have followed faithfully, missing only one month due to our cross-country move, but even doubled-up payments the following month. I am just so frustrated.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thx!
