I find this difficult to comprehend. About 20 years ago I fell athwart of the IRS and a few months later the IRS seized everything in my bank accounts. Don’t see why the IRS can’t do the same for federal employees.

Taxes are for little people. And yes I had a run-in with the IRS, too, but I didn’t let it get that far...........

Similar experience here. Had a dispute with the IRS and they put a lien on my bank account (which resulted in a bunch of bills bouncing).

FedGov does not provide for garnishment of employee pay? If they don't, then depts should be ordered to junk their payroll systems and go with an outside company like ADP.

Har Har. When pigs fly, etc.

I'm gonna throw out a little thought for the folks here. Wouldn't be interesting to run the numbers and see what the ratio of personal audits is based on voter registration/party affiliation.

Yes, difficult to comprehend, given that the Federal Government has control of their paychecks and can just dock their pay.
