AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.
Under Utah's debt collection law, creditors can seize certain assets to satisfy unpaid debts — but some property is legally "exempt," meaning it's off-limits. This bill adds federal tax refunds from the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) or Child Tax Credit to the list of protected assets, shielding the full refund amount from being taken by creditors collecting on unsecured debts like credit card balances or medical bills.
