Are my Social Security benefits of $1,400/mo. considered "disposable income" when computing my total income if a creditor attempts to garnish my income? I hope not since I only have $555/month other income from an annuity and this amount is under the minimum. I live in Colorado

I did just that declared to the creditor I only got SS they said " SO " I called the bank and they said they couldn't help me so as long as your money goes into a checking account I'm at a credit union by the way they can take it! Don't believe for a minute you are judgement proof as I was told by legal aid you are not! Your best bet is to have your SS sent to you in a check so only you control it, it sucks but if you live on SS you aren't dealing with enough to live on as it is.

I have an SSD claim waiting for a decision. I will get a back pay amount for 2 years. I need to bankrupt and I am confused I have one lawyer that states he can only save $30,000 of my back pay another lawyer stated that they can't touch any of my ssd benifits. Who is right?
