  Can child support be withheld from Federal Work Study grants?
  Question
  Can child support be withheld from Federal Work Study grants?
  Answer
  No. Federal Work Study (FWS) grants from the Department of Education are exempt from child support withholding. The statutory basis exempting such educational grants is found at 20 USC1095a(d) and such grant monies are not subject to the "inclusive" provisions of 42 USC 659 and 5 CFR 581.
