An Illinois Wage Deduction Order-AFFidavit is a form that employers in the state of Illinois must complete when they are ordered to withhold wages from an employee’s paycheck in order to satisfy a debt, such as child support or taxes. The affidavit requires the employer to provide information about the employee, the debt, and the amount of wages to be deducted. There are two types of Illinois Wage Deduction Order-AFFidavits: wage garnishment and wage withholding. In a wage garnishment, the employer is required to withhold a certain percentage of the employee’s wages, while in a wage withholding the employer is required to withhold a specific amount of the employee’s wages. Both types of Illinois Wage Deduction Order-AFFidavits must be completed and submitted to the appropriate government agency, such as the Illinois Department of Revenue, in order for the order to be enforced.
