This person works for tips. I am temperarily managing my grandfathers resturant and I have never came across this before. The guy works as our bartender and waiter. How do I resolve this situation?
Answers:
Contact the department doing the garnishment. If you ignore it, the company is in violation of state law and can be fined. There should be a phone number on the form for you to call.
The child support garnishment is probably why the person is working for tips.
I've had several people start with my company and work for 2 or 3 months until the child support garnishment order finds them and then they don't show up for work anymore.
Tell the dead beat son-of-a-***** to support his kids.
You are required to treat reported tips as wages. The wage garnishment will tell you what the limits are. If there is not enough money available to comply, the limits on the amount to be deducted will solve your problem. You are not required to go in to your own pocket in order to comply.
If you ignore it as one idiot advised, you will likely (depending on where you live) be liable for the support yourself (or the business).
A garnishment is a court order. So, as advised, treat his tips like salary (which you should be doing anyway per IRS regulations) and garnish them.
Do what the law says, you can call irs to explain. These children can not survive without food, diapers, medical attention . these dead beat dads need to wear condoms...
don't be stupid, comply with the order, there is no point in letting the dead beats problems become your problem.
Go to the "Labor Bureau" office of your state , they will give you the acurate information.
If you make a mistake you can be in fined big time so go directly to them and they will tell you what to do to avoid any legal problem.
