In Texas, the statute of limitations for collecting debt is typically four years, meaning creditors have four years to file a lawsuit after a debt is due. However, a 1099-C is issued by creditors when they cancel a debt of $600 or more, which can have tax implications for the borrower. While federal law governs the issuance of 1099-C forms, the state statute of limitations still applies to the underlying debt, meaning that even if a 1099-C is issued, the creditor may still be barred from pursuing legal action if the debt is older than four years. Thus, the issuance of a 1099-C does not extend the time frame for debt collection in Texas.
