Illinois Wage Deduction Summons is a legal document issued by the courts in Illinois that requires a business or employer to withhold a certain amount of wages from the employee’s paycheck and send it to the court. This document is used to enforce the payment of child support, spousal maintenance, fines, penalties, and other debts owed to the court. There are two types of Illinois Wage Deduction Summons: (1) Wage Deduction Summons for Child Support and (2) Wage Deduction Summons for Spousal Maintenance. Both documents require employers to withhold a certain percentage of the employee’s wages and send it to the court, in order to satisfy the court-ordered payment.
