Depending on the amount of money a person owes in arrears,
yes, they can.
They can also attatch wages,
put judgements and liens against property,
and intercept income tax refunds to pay back child support.

Yep. A long as whoever owes the child support is on the account they can do whatever they want. Be careful because if you own a house they can put liens on that as well. Here in Cali. they will even notify the DMV and you will not be able to register a vehicle or renew your Drivers License until you clear up the matter.

I don't know if seize is the right word, but.... If your ex does get married, that new spouse is also liable for the child support and their earnings are looked at in a court of law and can be used to garnish the needed payments to pay you.

If a husband or wife is ordered to pay child support that spouse shouldnt have to pay for their spouses mistakes or assume financial responsibility for paying for a child they had with someone from a past marriage or relationship. This is what is wrong with this country innocent people are having to pay for another person's mistake and BS out of their pockets and that person isnt being held accountable for what they do.

If you are the one worried about getting seized, get your money the hell out of that account and to some where safe. Hide your assets the best you can to avoid getting raped by this very unfair system....Pay whats fair of course but don't let your ex or the courts F*ck you over.
If you are the one trying to leach even more money....Go f*ck your self you greedy pig.

Yup.
Just because you share an account with someone doesn't mean that you get an out for supporting a child that you helped create.

The system is completely unfair all over the country! You really, really need to check your particular state laws, as the rules governing siezure vary accordingly!

Absolutely. The IRS can also retain any refunds if filed as married filing jointly.
