[OP85063]

What is the name of your state? New York

hey guys, I need a little help here.
After I file ch 7. How long after does it take to stop the wage garnishment?
What will I need to do to make it stop ASAP.
Who will I need to send, and what info will I need to send to stop it?

Thanks

Your attorney will handle it. Generally speaking, a fax to the judgment creditor with the bk filing number and date filed and a request to honor the automatic stay is all it takes.

Does he have to send it to my employer also?
All payment is going to the sheriffs office, should he fax a copy there and tell them to stop right away?

You need to ask your attorney what is customary in your jurisdiction.
