Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California

How soon can citibank garnish wages/bank accounts in California after a judgement? Can they enter my home to take things? We have no money in our bank and operate cash-only. We're about to move to another country (and still plan to continue settling/paying our various debts from there) in a few months.

It can levy your bank account and garnish your wages as soon as it wants. Usually, judgment creditors might wait until just before the next payday -- i.e. the end of the month.
