A Missouri Impoundment of Funds Agreement is a contract between two parties, typically an employer and employee, that outlines a plan for the employer to set aside a portion of the employee’s wages each pay period. The employer agrees to hold the funds in a separate account for the purpose of paying the employee’s taxes or other debts, such as student loans, child support, or other financial obligations. There are two main types of Missouri Impoundment of Funds Agreements: voluntary and involuntary. A voluntary impoundment agreement is one that the employee agrees to voluntarily enter into, while an involuntary impoundment agreement is one that is initiated by the employer without the employee’s consent. Regardless of the type of agreement, the employer is responsible for ensuring that the appropriate taxes are withheld from the employee’s wages and paid to the proper authorities. In addition to withholding taxes, employers can also use a Missouri Impoundment of Funds Agreement to collect other payments, such as health insurance premiums, union dues, or other payments that the employee may be responsible for. In such cases, the employer will hold the funds in a separate account and disburse the payments as prescribed under the agreement.
