What should the employer do if it has received both an IRS levy and a child support income-withholding order/notice for an employee?
The employer should notify the Child Support Enforcement Agency that a federal tax (IRS) levy was received in addition to the income-withholding order/notice. The Child Support Enforcement Agency can inform the employer if the underlying child support order was in fact established prior to the date that the IRS levy was entered. If the underlying order was not established prior to the IRS levy, the child support agency can then contact the IRS to determine if the levy may be modified to allow withholding of any child support.
