ATTACHMENT AND GARNISHMENT OF BENEFITS

Workers' compensation benefits are not subject to attachment or garnishment, although they may be withheld under Minnesota Statutes, section 518A.53 , and paid for child support or spousal maintenance if the other requirements of that statute are met. Upon request, the insurer shall file with the division a statement of the amount being withheld from the employee's benefits and paid to the county or obligee, a copy of the order for withholding of income, and verification of payments made.
