Why would the IRS levy a bank account?

The IRS would levy a bank account if the bank account holder had not paid his or her taxes. However, the IRS wouldn't do this unless they had exhausted all other means to collect. They would first send the taxpayer a notice that taxes had been assessed and demand payment. It the taxpayer ignored this notice the IRS would send another notice letting the taxpayer know it was their intention to levy his or her bank account, or other property. This would be sent 30 days before they actually levied the account. Don't ignore letters from the IRS!!

Can you stop a levy on your savings account?

Yes, a bank levy can be stopped. Generally if a levy is attached on your saving account, it means that you have unresolved debt. In most cases, a bank account can be levied by IRS or state taxing authorities. If you did not take actions, the debtors are authorized to take your money in the saving account to pay for the debt. So contact your debtors and try to figure it out. If possible get an attorney to help you deal with it. More information, you can go and check the related links.

If your account was garnished by a govt agency(i.e. the IRS). Then the IRS needs to put that money back into your account not the bank.
