Hello, I dont know the answers to these questions without doing some research. You might try a local attorney who might know, but he/she still might want to know the facts of your case. My guess is that the joint savings account is subject to levy, but you should be able to protect the child support payment amounts. However, again consult with a lawyer to make sure. Good luck, Mark J. Mahoney
