Consumer Narrative
The Department of Treasury garnished my wages and seized my state tax return to pay health insurance premiums for the XXXX XXXX MN when I was in an off duty status from my job as a rural mail XXXX due to an occupational injury that occurred late XXXX through my extensive shoulder XXXX in XXXX of XXXX ( through XXXX ). All of the debt ( from XXXX ) was paid through the garnishment and seizing my XXXX state tax return. I actually believe they took more than the debt. Now they have reported the same debt to the credit bureaus as well as sent me a letter stating I owe another {$1500.00} plus dollars via XXXX XXXX MN. I contacted the Department of Treasury and explained that all of the insurance premium debt had been paid and I do not understand what this letter for collection means. I requested a detailed statement to be mailed to me, I have not received this. I am at a loss as to what this is for. Even when I was finally able to receive XXXX Workmans Compensation for lost wages, which does quality control checks for any insurance payments that are to be deducted from the compensation, the checks came back that I do not owe insurance premium payments. I know this is a federal agency and I am sticking my neck out to report this but this is affecting my XXXX XXXX, my ability to purchase a home and everything is incorrect regarding the debt as well as again posting this to the credit bureaus. In fact, when my mortgage company checked my credit in XXXX, XXXX nothing from the Department of Treasury was on my report and to re-qualify for a mortgage and receive a pre-approval letter my mortgage company checked my credit this month ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and all of this is reported again. This is unbelievably stressful and has substantially increased my already high anxiety. I don't owe anything to them. Why are they doing this to me?
