RE: REVOCATION OF WAGE ASSIGNMENT AUTHORIZATION - Account #[ACCOUNT NUMBER]

Dear Sir/Madam:

Original Creditor: [Creditor Name]
Amount of Assignment: $[Amount]
Effective Date of Assignment: [Date]
Date of This Revocation: [Today's Date]

Statement of Revocation:

I hereby REVOKE and WITHDRAW any authorization I have previously given for the assignment or garnishment of my wages. This revocation is effective immediately and applies to all future payroll periods.

I also request that:

  • You immediately cease all wage garnishment/assignment activities
  • You notify my employer that the wage assignment is revoked
  • You provide written confirmation of this revocation to me within 10 days
