Tax return can't be garnished for credit card debt. But if the creditor puts a levy on your bank account and tax return gets deposited in it, then the money can be taken away by the creditor.
tax returns can only be garnished by federal and state debts....

I think it also really depends who got a copy of the judgement.
I think it also really depends who got a copy of the judgement. If your pay was being garnished prior to termination, I am assuming there was a court judgement involved telling your employer to take the money out of your paycheck before it hit the bank.
A tax refund is deposited directly into your bank account, which may or may not have gotten a copy of the judgement. I would ask to see a copy of the judgement from the court, first-and if money has not been coming out of your bank account in the past, possibly you are OK? A copy of the judgement would specify how the creditor is to get their money--whether directly from the employer or your bank account. Just a thought.
