Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Connecticut

Bankruptcy - Pension, SS & Disability

Hello,

In the states of CT & NJ, I wanted to know when someone is still within their 7yr bankruptcy period and is now retired and on disability, can their pension, social security/disability wages be garnished if they stop making payments on debts (credit card, car pymts, cell phone, cable, etc?)

Thank you for your time.
