Debt Collection Act of 1982

Summary

Debt Collection Act of 1982 - Authorizes Federal agencies (including the United States Postal Service) to deduct installment payments from the pay of an employee or a member of the Armed Forces or Armed Forces Reserve to offset any debts owed the Government. Limits the amount deducted to 25 percent of the individual's disposable pay. Permits such deduction only after the agency has: (1) notified the individual of its intention to garnish his or her pay; and (2) provided the individual an opportunity to inspect its records, to review its determination of indebtedness, and to enter into a repayment agreement.
