ATS, who has actually read the bill ? - and can tell me reliably if this is true or not.
Please don't reference other sources, only someone who has read the bill would know.
She is thinking of taking all her money out of the bank and hiding it since the interest she gets is about equal to "hiding it under the mattress". She says if this is true she will definitely withdraw all her money and put it in a safe, or lock-box.
If it is true, I may do the same thing. Withdraw and put the cash in a lock box at the bank.
With all the Snowden revelations I don't trust the government and believe that the government would actually do this. If Greece just took money from bank accounts without permission, why wouldn't Obama do the same thing? Of course my account wouldn't pay for even one of his vacations, or Michelle's for that matter. Ruminating aside, if you read the bill I'd love to hear from you.

Are you being sarcastic or is the first line true, direct from the "unreadable" bill?
They take Child Support, Student loans, etc.....from Tax Returns, why not this?
Not hard to conceive.

Here is the Bill... www.gpo.gov...
Start here.
OMG, it nearly crashed my computer and is as searchable as rubber on a ball.
Was hoping someone on ATS would be able to help - which section should I look in? Is there a searchable form of the bill?

They can't take it out of your tax return if you get nothing back. Increase your deductions to minimize your withholding amount. Or, go 1099 and pay only what you owe.
