The regulations allow personal guarantors to raise objections to garnishment concerning the existence, amount, or current enforceability of the debt, the rate of garnishment, and whether the personal guarantor has been continuously employed less than twelve months after involuntary separation from employment. The SBA has the burden of proving the existence and amount of a debt. Personal guarantors disputing the existence or amount must prove by a preponderance of the credible evidence that no debt exists, the amount is incorrect or the debt is not enforceable.
