They only have so long to collect…. thanks to CSED
CSED stands for collection statute expiration date. This is the official IRS term, but state tax debts also have a CSED that can go by other names. Here we will go through the IRS CSED and that of all the states.
Internal Revenue Service
The IRS has 10 years to collect on a tax debt from the date it is assessed. This can be extended by the following:
- Offer In Compromise is pending
- The taxpayer is out of the country for more than 6 months
- A request to place a case into a payment plan or Currently Not Collectible status is pending
- A request for a due process hearing is pending
- Bankruptcy proceedings extend the case for the time the bankruptcy is pending
- There is an active request for innocent spouse relief
If the case is in a payment plan, Currently Not Collectible status, or just sitting while the IRS is trying to collect, the debt is getting closer to expiration every day. Some tax relief companies might try to get you to file an Offer In Compromise when you have tax debts that are close to expiring since they want to charge you. If your debt is closed to expiring and already in Currently Not Collectible Status or an IRS payment plan, you might just want to let it expire.

i have a levy from a tax that was never assessed when i was homeless, unemployed and living in my pickup truck, a lien from a payment agreement that is over16 years old and i defaulted when i was unemployed, homeless and living in my pickup truck and a lien for income i never received while i was homeless, unemployed and living in my pickup truck.
how do i deal with that
On this you would need to contact the IRS (or state if a state authority) and find out exactly what the tax debt is due to and how much it is. From there you can see if it is going to expire soon or if something else should be done to resolve it.
The defaulting of the payment agreement won’t stop the IRS’ 10 year period to collect, so those debts might be close to expired by now. If you would like for us to look into this for you, you can reach me at (888) 515-4829, and press 77.

so a bankruptcy extends tax debts from expiring that were not in the bankruptcy?
Yes exactly. If your only major debt is taxes, you probably should be doing an Offer in Compromise instead if you qualify for a bankruptcy. If you have tons of other debt, Bankruptcy might be the best option. More recent debts will not get reduced on in the bankruptcy. See our Offer in Compromise or Bankruptcy post for more information.

Hmm is anyone else encountering problems with the pictures on this blog loading? I’m trying to find out if its a problem on my end or if it’s the blog. Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
One thing I would like to say is the fact before purchasing more laptop or computer memory, take a look at the machine into which it is installed. In the event the machine will be running Windows XP, for instance, the memory ceiling is 3.25GB. Setting up over this would basically constitute any waste. Make certain that one’s motherboard can handle an upgrade amount, as well. Good blog post.
Thanks for the suggestions you have provided here. Additionally, I believe there are some factors that will keep your automobile insurance premium decrease. One is, to contemplate buying cars and trucks that are within the good set of car insurance organizations. Cars that are expensive are more at risk of being stolen. Aside from that insurance policies are also in line with the value of your car, so the higher priced it is, then the higher the premium you pay.
