I just got a letter stating I am going to be reffered to department of justice to garnish my wages, potentially. How long does it take for them to go through with this? How much would they take or is this just another collection scare tactic?

CRA doesn't mess around. If you aren't making payments then this is what they do. If they sue you the rate of garnishment will be 25-30%. If you are ever served with a statement of claim (summons) you will have 20 days to respond.

It could also be a ploy to get you to acknowledge the debt in the event there is a limitation issue. If ths is the case there is only one way to aress this and that is to find out.

If you want help with any of this let me know. Visit our site and click on the contact us form and request a telephone appointment.
