Default American in the UK wage garnishment

I'm not sure who to talk to about this. I am married to a UK citizen and living in the UK .... I owe a federal student loan in the US that is in default. I received a message that a court order for garnishment has been issued in the US .... how does that affect my working status in the UK and can I be denied my visa extension because of it?

Normally no that will not affect your visa--that will be a civil matter.

Like any debt you may owe,

It won't affect anything except your credit in America. The authorities in the UK don't take much that happens in America very seriously. I wouldn't worry about it.
