Connecticut Wage Execution is a legal process that allows creditors or debt collectors to collect a debt from a debtor's wages directly from their employer. The creditor or debt collector files a petition with the court, and a judge then issues a wage execution order. This order requires the employer to deduct an agreed-upon amount from the debtor's wages and send it to the creditor or debt collector. Connecticut Wage Execution is also known as a wage garnishment, wage attachment, or earnings withholding order. There are two types of Connecticut Wage Execution: non-exempt payments and exempt payments. Non-exempt payments are deducted from the debtor's wages until the debt is paid in full. Exempt payments are limited to 25% of the debtor's disposable income, or the amount by which the debtor's disposable income exceeds 30 times the federal minimum wage (whichever is less).
