| Question: |
|
I am considering filing for bankruptcy. In the meantime, how
many creditors can issue a garnishment on my wages at one time? I have a
wife and 2 minor children as dependants. How much can be taken per month
by creditors with a garnishment? Thank you for your answer and advice.

In Alberta, under a garnishment Order, you are allowed to keep $800 for
you and $200 for each of your dependants per month. Creditors can have
1/2 of what's left.
