Every state has a statute of limitations and it depends on your cause of action (type of case). Do not trust a well intentioned internet answer or else you may lose valuable rights by doing so. This is a technical area. Consult a local attorney to be certain.

After a period of years when a tax debt cannot be collected because of banruptcy or lack of funds will the IRS discharge the debt?
The IRS has ten years from the date the tax was originally assessed to collect the tax debt. After this time has passed, the statute of limitations will pass and any remaining taxes owed will go away. There are several things which can pause or "toll" the running of this statute. If you file an Offer in Compromise, file certain Appeals, file a suit against the IRS, or enter into bankruptcy, for example, the statute of limitations stops running for the duration that you are going through those proceedings. In general, if you do anything that stops the IRS from collecting the taxes the statute of limitations will be tolled during that period.

Is your tax federal government wiped out after ten years?
In general, an IRS debt has a statute of limitations of 10 years. If the government cannot collect the debt within ten years, they write it off and it is no longer a valid debt. There are several things that can "toll" the statute of limitations, or temporarily stop it from running. These can include, but are not limited to,: 1. Filing an Offer in Compromise -- the statute of limitations does not run for the entire time that an Offer in Compromise is under review. 2. Filing a lawsuit against the IRS -- the statute of limitations does not run for the entire time litigation against the IRS is pending. 3. Filing for bankruptcy -- the statute of limitations does not run while you are under the protection of the bankruptcy courts, and it does not begin running again until six months after the bankruptcy is discharged or dismissed. 4. Filing a Collection Due Process (CDP) Appeal: a CDP Appeal is an administrative appeal that can be filed to protest proposed levies and seizures of property. The statute of limitations does not run while this Appeal is pending. 5. Military members serving in combat zones: the statute of limitations does not run if you are a member of the military serving in a combat zone. There are other small things that stop the statute of limitations from running as well. As a general rule, whenever the IRS is legally prohibited from attempting to collect the debt the statute of limitations is not running. Because many people will take one or more of these actions throughout the course of a ten year period, in practice the IRS usually ends up having 11-12 years to collect a debt, but that depends on each individual situation. 10 years is the baseline that everyone starts with.
